  2. Collatz conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collatz_conjecture

    Modifying the condition in this way can make a problem either harder or easier to solve (intuitively, it is harder to justify a positive answer but might be easier to justify a negative one). Kurtz and Simon [ 34 ] proved that the universally quantified problem is, in fact, undecidable and even higher in the arithmetical hierarchy ...

  3. Graph of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_of_a_function

    Given a function: from a set X (the domain) to a set Y (the codomain), the graph of the function is the set [4] = {(, ()):}, which is a subset of the Cartesian product.In the definition of a function in terms of set theory, it is common to identify a function with its graph, although, formally, a function is formed by the triple consisting of its domain, its codomain and its graph.

  4. Graph operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_operations

    graph intersection: G 1 ∩ G 2 = (V 1 ∩ V 2, E 1 ∩ E 2); [1] graph join: . Graph with all the edges that connect the vertices of the first graph with the vertices of the second graph. It is a commutative operation (for unlabelled graphs); [2] graph products based on the cartesian product of the vertex sets:

  5. Elementary algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_algebra

    To solve this kind of equation, the technique is add, subtract, multiply, or divide both sides of the equation by the same number in order to isolate the variable on one side of the equation. Once the variable is isolated, the other side of the equation is the value of the variable. [37] This problem and its solution are as follows: Solving for x

  6. Grid method multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid_method_multiplication

    The grid method (also known as the box method) of multiplication is an introductory approach to multi-digit multiplication calculations that involve numbers larger than ten. Because it is often taught in mathematics education at the level of primary school or elementary school , this algorithm is sometimes called the grammar school method.

  7. Algebraic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_function

    For example, y = x 2 fails the horizontal line test: it fails to be one-to-one. The inverse is the algebraic "function" x = ± y {\displaystyle x=\pm {\sqrt {y}}} . Another way to understand this, is that the set of branches of the polynomial equation defining our algebraic function is the graph of an algebraic curve .

  8. Polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial

    However, one may use it over any domain where addition and multiplication are defined (that is, any ring). In particular, if a is a polynomial then P ( a ) is also a polynomial. More specifically, when a is the indeterminate x , then the image of x by this function is the polynomial P itself (substituting x for x does not change anything).

  9. Equation solving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_solving

    An example of using Newton–Raphson method to solve numerically the equation f(x) = 0. In mathematics, to solve an equation is to find its solutions, which are the values (numbers, functions, sets, etc.) that fulfill the condition stated by the equation, consisting generally of two expressions related by an equals sign.
