The cube of a number or any other mathematical expression is denoted by a superscript 3, for example 2 3 = 8 or (x + 1) 3. The cube is also the number multiplied by its square: n 3 = n × n 2 = n × n × n. The cube function is the function x ↦ x 3 (often denoted y = x 3) that maps a number to its cube. It is an odd function, as
Triangular numbers are a type of figurate number, other examples being square numbers and cube numbers. The n th triangular number is the number of dots in the triangular arrangement with n dots on each side, and is equal to the sum of the n natural numbers from 1 to n. The sequence of triangular numbers, starting with the 0th triangular number, is
Sociable Dudeney numbers and amicable Dudeney numbers are the powers of their respective roots. The number of iterations i {\displaystyle i} needed for F p , b i ( n ) {\displaystyle F_{p,b}^{i}(n)} to reach a fixed point is the Dudeney function's persistence of n {\displaystyle n} , and undefined if it never reaches a fixed point.
1729 is composite, the squarefree product of three prime numbers 7 × 13 × 19. [1] It has as factors 1, 7, 13, 19, 91, 133, 247, and 1729. [2] It is the third Carmichael number, [3] and the first Chernick–Carmichael number. [a] Furthermore, it is the first in the family of absolute Euler pseudoprimes, a subset of Carmichael numbers.
The only tetrahedral number that is also a square pyramidal number is 1 (Beukers, 1988), and the only tetrahedral number that is also a perfect cube is 1. The infinite sum of tetrahedral numbers' reciprocals is 3 / 2 , which can be derived using telescoping series:
A root of degree 2 is called a square root and a root of degree 3, a cube root. Roots of higher degree are referred by using ordinal numbers, as in fourth root, twentieth root, etc. The computation of an n th root is a root extraction. For example, 3 is a square root of 9, since 3 2 = 9, and −3 is also a square root of 9, since (−3) 2 = 9.
The popularity of the Cube is reflected in its strong sales—in 2022, 5.75 million units of the official Rubik’s Cube were sold globally and that figure was up 14% year-to-date, according to ...
In mathematics, the nth taxicab number, typically denoted Ta(n) or Taxicab(n), is defined as the smallest integer that can be expressed as a sum of two positive integer cubes in n distinct ways. [1] The most famous taxicab number is 1729 = Ta(2) = 1 3 + 12 3 = 9 3 + 10 3 , also known as the Hardy-Ramanujan number.
