  2. Linear equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_equation

    Conversely, every line is the set of all solutions of a linear equation. The phrase "linear equation" takes its origin in this correspondence between lines and equations: a linear equation in two variables is an equation whose solutions form a line. If b ≠ 0, the line is the graph of the function of x that has been defined in the preceding ...

  3. Kronecker product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kronecker_product

    In mathematics, the Kronecker product, sometimes denoted by ⊗, is an operation on two matrices of arbitrary size resulting in a block matrix.It is a specialization of the tensor product (which is denoted by the same symbol) from vectors to matrices and gives the matrix of the tensor product linear map with respect to a standard choice of basis.

  4. Standard form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_form

    Numbers in standard form are written in this format: a×10 n Where a is a number 1 ≤ a < 10 and n is an integer. ln mathematics and science Canonical form; Standard form (Ax + By = C) – a common form of a linear equation; The more common term for normalised scientific notation in British English and Caribbean English; In government

  5. Linear algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_algebra

    In three-dimensional Euclidean space, these three planes represent solutions to linear equations, and their intersection represents the set of common solutions: in this case, a unique point. The blue line is the common solution to two of these equations. Linear algebra is the branch of mathematics concerning linear equations such as:

  6. System of linear equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_linear_equations

    In mathematics, a system of linear equations (or linear system) is a collection of two or more linear equations involving the same variables. [1] [2] For example, {+ = + = + = is a system of three equations in the three variables x, y, z.

  7. Consistent and inconsistent equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consistent_and...

    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 ...

  8. Matrix (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Matrices can be used to compactly write and work with multiple linear equations, that is, systems of linear equations. For example, if A is an m×n matrix, x designates a column vector (that is, n×1-matrix) of n variables x 1, x 2, ..., x n, and b is an m×1-column vector, then the matrix equation =

  9. Matrix representation of conic sections - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_representation_of...

    An alternative approach that uses the matrix form of the quadratic equation is based on the fact that when the center is the origin of the coordinate system, there are no linear terms in the equation. Any translation to a coordinate origin (x 0, y 0), using x* = x – x 0, y* = y − y 0 gives rise to
