In mathematics, the solution set of a system of equations or inequality is the set of all its solutions, that is the values that satisfy all equations and inequalities. [1] Also, the solution set or the truth set of a statement or a predicate is the set of all values that satisfy it. If there is no solution, the solution set is the empty set. [2]
Instead, the inequalities must be solved independently, yielding x < 1 / 2 and x ≥ −1 respectively, which can be combined into the final solution −1 ≤ x < 1 / 2 . Occasionally, chained notation is used with inequalities in different directions, in which case the meaning is the logical conjunction of the inequalities ...
The solution set of a given set of equations or inequalities is the set of all its solutions, a solution being a tuple of values, one for each unknown, that satisfies all the equations or inequalities. If the solution set is empty, then there are no values of the unknowns that satisfy simultaneously all equations and inequalities.
Two-dimensional linear inequalities are expressions in two variables of the form: + < +, where the inequalities may either be strict or not. The solution set of such an inequality can be graphically represented by a half-plane (all the points on one "side" of a fixed line) in the Euclidean plane. [2]
The system + =, + = has exactly one solution: x = 1, y = 2 The nonlinear system + =, + = has the two solutions (x, y) = (1, 0) and (x, y) = (0, 1), while + + =, + + =, + + = has an infinite number of solutions because the third equation is the first equation plus twice the second one and hence contains no independent information; thus any value of z can be chosen and values of x and y can be ...
Even when the solution set is finite, there is, in general, no closed-form expression of the solutions (in the case of a single equation, this is Abel–Ruffini theorem). The Barth surface , shown in the figure is the geometric representation of the solutions of a polynomial system reduced to a single equation of degree 6 in 3 variables.
Hölder's inequality is used to prove the Minkowski inequality, which is the triangle inequality in the space L p (μ), and also to establish that L q (μ) is the dual space of L p (μ) for p ∈ [1, ∞). Hölder's inequality (in a slightly different form) was first found by Leonard James Rogers .
In mathematical optimization and computer science, a feasible region, feasible set, or solution space is the set of all possible points (sets of values of the choice variables) of an optimization problem that satisfy the problem's constraints, potentially including inequalities, equalities, and integer constraints.
