    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_equation

    [6]: 202–207 If one is given a quadratic equation in the form x 2 + bx + c = 0, the sought factorization has the form (x + q)(x + s), and one has to find two numbers q and s that add up to b and whose product is c (this is sometimes called "Vieta's rule" [7] and is related to Vieta's formulas). As an example, x 2 + 5x + 6 factors as (x + 3)(x ...

    Given a quadratic polynomial of the form + the numbers h and k may be interpreted as the Cartesian coordinates of the vertex (or stationary point) of the parabola. That is, h is the x -coordinate of the axis of symmetry (i.e. the axis of symmetry has equation x = h ), and k is the minimum value (or maximum value, if a < 0) of the quadratic ...

  4. Quadratic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_function

    If a quadratic function is equated with zero, then the result is a quadratic equation. The solutions of a quadratic equation are the zeros (or roots) of the corresponding quadratic function, of which there can be two, one, or zero. The solutions are described by the quadratic formula. A quadratic polynomial or quadratic function can involve ...

    The four roots of the depressed quartic x 4 + px 2 + qx + r = 0 may also be expressed as the x coordinates of the intersections of the two quadratic equations y 2 + py + qx + r = 0 and y − x 2 = 0 i.e., using the substitution y = x 2 that two quadratics intersect in four points is an instance of Bézout's theorem.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_and_minimum

    For example, x ∗ is a strict global maximum point if for all x in X with x ≠ x ∗, we have f(x ∗) > f(x), and x ∗ is a strict local maximum point if there exists some ε > 0 such that, for all x in X within distance ε of x ∗ with x ≠ x ∗, we have f(x ∗) > f(x). Note that a point is a strict global maximum point if and only if ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_programming

    The quadratic programming problem with n variables and m constraints can be formulated as follows. [2] Given: a real-valued, n-dimensional vector c, an n×n-dimensional real symmetric matrix Q, an m×n-dimensional real matrix A, and; an m-dimensional real vector b, the objective of quadratic programming is to find an n-dimensional vector x ...

  9. Taylor's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor's_theorem

    In calculus, Taylor's theorem gives an approximation of a -times differentiable function around a given point by a polynomial of degree , called the -th-order Taylor polynomial. For a smooth function , the Taylor polynomial is the truncation at the order k {\textstyle k} of the Taylor series of the function.
