  2. Sturm's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sturm's_theorem

    This amounts to replacing the remainder sequence of the Euclidean algorithm by a pseudo-remainder sequence, a pseudo remainder sequence being a sequence , …, of polynomials such that there are constants and such that + is the remainder of the Euclidean division of by . (The different kinds of pseudo-remainder sequences are defined by the ...

  3. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

    In fact, this rule for prime divisors besides 2 and 5 is really a rule for divisibility by any integer relatively prime to 10 (including 33 and 39; see the table below). This is why the last divisibility condition in the tables above and below for any number relatively prime to 10 has the same kind of form (add or subtract some multiple of the ...

  4. Quotient rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quotient_rule

    In calculus, the quotient rule is a method of finding the derivative of a function that is the ratio of two differentiable functions. Let () = (), where both f and g are differentiable and ()

  5. Statistical proof - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_proof

    Bayesian statistics are based on a different philosophical approach for proof of inference.The mathematical formula for Bayes's theorem is: [|] = [|] [] []The formula is read as the probability of the parameter (or hypothesis =h, as used in the notation on axioms) “given” the data (or empirical observation), where the horizontal bar refers to "given".

  6. Rule of division (combinatorics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_division...

    In combinatorics, the rule of division is a counting principle. It states that there are n/d ways to do a task if it can be done using a procedure that can be carried out in n ways, and for each way w, exactly d of the n ways correspond to the way w. In a nutshell, the division rule is a common way to ignore "unimportant" differences when ...

  7. Law of the unconscious statistician - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_the_unconscious...

    This proposition is (sometimes) known as the law of the unconscious statistician because of a purported tendency to think of the aforementioned law as the very definition of the expected value of of a function g(X) and a random variable X, rather than (more formally) as a consequence of the true definition of expected value. [1]

  8. Product rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_rule

    This, combined with the sum rule for derivatives, shows that differentiation is linear. The rule for integration by parts is derived from the product rule, as is (a weak version of) the quotient rule. (It is a "weak" version in that it does not prove that the quotient is differentiable but only says what its derivative is if it is differentiable.)

  9. Ruffini's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruffini's_rule

    In mathematics, Ruffini's rule is a method for computation of the Euclidean division of a polynomial by a binomial of the form x – r. It was described by Paolo Ruffini in 1809. [ 1 ] The rule is a special case of synthetic division in which the divisor is a linear factor.
