  2. Solution in radicals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solution_in_radicals

    A solution in radicals or algebraic solution is an expression of a solution of a polynomial equation that is algebraic, that is, relies only on addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, raising to integer powers, and extraction of n th roots (square roots, cube roots, etc.). A well-known example is the quadratic formula

  3. Quintic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quintic_function

    Finding the roots (zeros) of a given polynomial has been a prominent mathematical problem.. Solving linear, quadratic, cubic and quartic equations in terms of radicals and elementary arithmetic operations on the coefficients can always be done, no matter whether the roots are rational or irrational, real or complex; there are formulas that yield the required solutions.

  4. Equation solving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_solving

    In the simple case of a function of one variable, say, h(x), we can solve an equation of the form h(x) = c for some constant c by considering what is known as the inverse function of h. Given a function h : A → B, the inverse function, denoted h −1 and defined as h −1 : B → A, is a function such that

  5. Algebraic operation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_operation

    Algebraic operations in the solution to the quadratic equation.The radical sign √, denoting a square root, is equivalent to exponentiation to the power of ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠.The ± sign means the equation can be written with either a + or a – sign.

  6. Symbolab - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolab

    Symbolab is an answer engine [1] that provides step-by-step solutions to mathematical problems in a range of subjects. [2] It was originally developed by Israeli start-up company EqsQuest Ltd., under whom it was released for public use in 2011.

  7. Nested radical - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nested_radical

    In the case of two nested square roots, the following theorem completely solves the problem of denesting. [2]If a and c are rational numbers and c is not the square of a rational number, there are two rational numbers x and y such that + = if and only if is the square of a rational number d.

    Average mortgage rates edge higher for 30-year and 15-year terms as of Wednesday, December 18, 2024, as the Federal Reserve is set to conclude its final policy session of the year.

  9. Algebraic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_equation

    Abel showed that it is not possible to find such a formula in general (using only the four arithmetic operations and taking roots) for equations of degree five or higher. Galois theory provides a criterion which allows one to determine whether the solution to a given polynomial equation can be expressed using radicals.
