2. Rule of replacement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_replacement

   In logic, a rule of replacement[1][2][3] is a transformation rule that may be applied to only a particular segment of an expression. A logical system may be constructed so that it uses either axioms, rules of inference, or both as transformation rules for logical expressions in the system. Whereas a rule of inference is always applied to a ...

3. Equating coefficients - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equating_coefficients

   Equating coefficients. In mathematics, the method of equating the coefficients is a way of solving a functional equation of two expressions such as polynomials for a number of unknown parameters. It relies on the fact that two expressions are identical precisely when corresponding coefficients are equal for each different type of term.

4. Logical equivalence - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_equivalence

   Logical equivalence. In logic and mathematics, statements and are said to be logically equivalent if they have the same truth value in every model. [1] The logical equivalence of and is sometimes expressed as , , , or , depending on the notation being used. However, these symbols are also used for material equivalence, so proper interpretation ...

5. Quantifier (logic) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantifier_(logic)

   Quantifier (logic) In logic, a quantifier is an operator that specifies how many individuals in the domain of discourse satisfy an open formula. For instance, the universal quantifier in the first order formula expresses that everything in the domain satisfies the property denoted by . On the other hand, the existential quantifier in the ...

6. Equality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

   In mathematics, equality is a relationship between two quantities or expressions, stating that they have the same value, or represent the same mathematical object. [1] Equality between A and B is written A = B, and pronounced " A equals B ". In this equality, A and B are distinguished by calling them left-hand side (LHS), and right-hand side (RHS).

7. Expression (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

   In mathematics, an expression is a written arrangement of symbols following the context-dependent, syntactic conventions of mathematical notation. Symbols can denote numbers (constants), variables, operations, and functions. [1] Other symbols include punctuation marks and brackets, used for grouping where there is not a well-defined order of ...

8. Equation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation

   The first use of an equals sign, equivalent to 14x + 15 = 71 in modern notation. From The Whetstone of Witte by Robert Recorde of Wales (1557). [1]In mathematics, an equation is a mathematical formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =.

9. Equivalents of the Axiom of Choice - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalents_of_the_Axiom...

   Equivalents of the Axiom of Choice is a book in mathematics, collecting statements in mathematics that are true if and only if the axiom of choice holds. It was written by Herman Rubin and Jean E. Rubin, and published in 1963 by North-Holland as volume 34 of their Studies in Logic and the Foundations of Mathematics series.
