  3. Ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratio

    When a ratio is written in the form A:B, the two-dot character is sometimes the colon punctuation mark. [8] In Unicode, this is U+003A : COLON, although Unicode also provides a dedicated ratio character, U+2236 ∶ RATIO. [9] The numbers A and B are sometimes called terms of the ratio, with A being the antecedent and B being the consequent. [10]

    In this example, the ratio of adjacent terms in the blue sequence converges to L=1/2. We choose r = (L+1)/2 = 3/4. Then the blue sequence is dominated by the red sequence r k for all n ≥ 2. The red sequence converges, so the blue sequence does as well. Below is a proof of the validity of the generalized ratio test.

  5. Ratio distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratio_distribution

    A ratio distribution (also known as a quotient distribution) is a probability distribution constructed as the distribution of the ratio of random variables having two other known distributions. Given two (usually independent ) random variables X and Y , the distribution of the random variable Z that is formed as the ratio Z = X / Y is a ratio ...

    There are two written papers, each comprising half of the weightage towards the subject. Each paper is 2 hours 15 minutes long and worth 90 marks. Paper 1 has 12 to 14 questions, while Paper 2 has 9 to 11 questions. Generally, Paper 2 would have a graph plotting question based on linear law. It was originated in the year 2003 [3]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intercept_theorem

    The intercept theorem, also known as Thales's theorem, basic proportionality theorem or side splitter theorem, is an important theorem in elementary geometry about the ratios of various line segments that are created if two rays with a common starting point are intercepted by a pair of parallels.

  9. Proportionality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proportionality_(mathematics)

    In mathematics, two sequences of numbers, often experimental data, are proportional or directly proportional if their corresponding elements have a constant ratio. The ratio is called coefficient of proportionality (or proportionality constant) and its reciprocal is known as constant of normalization (or normalizing constant).
