A linear equation with two variables has many (i.e. an infinite number of) solutions. [38] For example: Problem in words: A father is 22 years older than his son. How old are they? Equivalent equation: = + where y is the father's age, x is the son's age. That cannot be worked out by itself.
The character ∂ (Unicode: U+2202) is a stylized cursive d mainly used as a mathematical symbol, usually to denote a partial derivative such as / (read as "the partial derivative of z with respect to x").
is the August equation, after the German physicist Ernst Ferdinand August (1795–1870). The August equation describes a linear relation between the logarithm of the pressure and the reciprocal temp. This assumes a temperature-independent heat of vaporization. The Antoine equation allows an improved, but still inexact description of the change ...

A difference equation is an equation where the unknown is a function f that occurs in the equation through f(x), f(x−1), ..., f(x−k), for some whole integer k called the order of the equation. If x is restricted to be an integer, a difference equation is the same as a recurrence relation
