  2. Equating coefficients - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equating_coefficients

    The unique pair of values a, b satisfying the first two equations is (a, b) = (1, 1); since these values also satisfy the third equation, there do in fact exist a, b such that a times the original first equation plus b times the original second equation equals the original third equation; we conclude that the third equation is linearly ...

  3. Polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial

    The names for the degrees may be applied to the polynomial or to its terms. For example, the term 2x in x 2 + 2x + 1 is a linear term in a quadratic polynomial. The polynomial 0, which may be considered to have no terms at all, is called the zero polynomial. Unlike other constant polynomials, its degree is not zero.

  4. Multiple integral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_integral

    Just as the definite integral of a positive function of one variable represents the area of the region between the graph of the function and the x-axis, the double integral of a positive function of two variables represents the volume of the region between the surface defined by the function (on the three-dimensional Cartesian plane where z = f(x, y)) and the plane which contains its domain. [1]

  5. Polynomial long division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_long_division

    x 3 has been divided leaving no remainder, and can therefore be marked as used by crossing it out. The result x 2 is then multiplied by the second term in the divisor −3 = −3x 2. Determine the partial remainder by subtracting −2x 2 − (−3x 2) = x 2. Mark −2x 2 as used and place the new remainder x 2 above it.

  6. Third derivative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_derivative

    Now for a more general definition. Let f be any function of x such that f ′′ is differentiable. Then the third derivative of f is given by [()] = [″ ()]. The third derivative is the rate at which the second derivative (f′′(x)) is changing.

  7. Polynomial evaluation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_evaluation

    Horner's method evaluates a polynomial using repeated bracketing: + + + + + = + (+ (+ (+ + (+)))). This method reduces the number of multiplications and additions to just Horner's method is so common that a computer instruction "multiply–accumulate operation" has been added to many computer processors, which allow doing the addition and multiplication operations in one combined step.

  8. Factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization

    For example, 3 × 5 is an integer factorization of 15, and (x2)(x + 2) is a polynomial factorization of x 24. Factorization is not usually considered meaningful within number systems possessing division , such as the real or complex numbers , since any x {\displaystyle x} can be trivially written as ( x y ) × ( 1 / y ) {\displaystyle ...

  9. Graph operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_operations

    Less commonly (though more consistent with the general definition of union in mathematics) the union of two graphs is defined as the graph (V 1 ∪ V 2, E 1 ∪ E 2). 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 ...
