  2. Fermat number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat_number

    If N = F n > 3, then the above Jacobi symbol is always equal to −1 for a = 3, and this special case of Proth's theorem is known as Pépin's test. Although Pépin's test and Proth's theorem have been implemented on computers to prove the compositeness of some Fermat numbers, neither test gives a specific nontrivial factor.

  3. f-number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F-number

    For example, if a lens's focal length were 100 mm and its entrance pupil's diameter were 50 mm, the f-number would be 2. This would be expressed as " f /2 " in a lens system. The aperture diameter would be equal to f/2. Camera lenses often include an adjustable diaphragm, which changes the size of the aperture stop and thus the entrance pupil ...

  4. Proof of Fermat's Last Theorem for specific exponents

    By the lemma above, since s is odd and its cube is equal to a number of the form 3w 2 + v 2, it too can be expressed in terms of smaller coprime numbers, e and f. s = e 2 + 3f 2. A short calculation shows that v = e(e 2 − 9f 2) w = 3f(e 2f 2) Thus, e is odd and f is even, because v is odd. The expression for 18w then becomes

    The first 3 powers of 2 with all but last digit odd is 2 4 = 16, 2 5 = 32 and 2 9 = 512. The next such power of 2 of form 2 n should have n of at least 6 digits. The only powers of 2 with all digits distinct are 2 0 = 1 to 2 15 = 32 768 , 2 20 = 1 048 576 and 2 29 = 536 870 912 .

    The triple bar character in Unicode is code point U+2261 ≡ IDENTICAL TO (≡, ≡). [1] The closely related code point U+2262 ≢ NOT IDENTICAL TO (≢, ≢) is the same symbol with a slash through it, indicating the negation of its mathematical meaning.

    F 2. gravitational force by object on earth (upward) F 3. force by support on object (upward) F 4. force by object on support (downward) Forces F 1 and F 2 are equal, due to Newton's third law; the same is true for forces F 3 and F 4. Forces F 1 and F 3 are equal if and only if the object is in equilibrium, and no other forces are applied ...

  8. Quadratic formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_formula

    The roots of the quadratic function y = ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ x 2 − 3x + ⁠ 5 / 2 ⁠ are the places where the graph intersects the x-axis, the values x = 1 and x = 5. They can be found via the quadratic formula. In elementary algebra, the quadratic formula is a closed-form expression describing the solutions of a quadratic equation.

    However, if F is absolutely continuous, it admits a derivative F′(x) at almost every point x, and moreover F′ is integrable, with F(b) − F(a) equal to the integral of F′ on [a, b]. Conversely, if f is any integrable function, then F as given in the first formula will be absolutely continuous with F′ = f almost everywhere.
