    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_open-source...

    The primary difference between a computer algebra system and a traditional calculator is the ability to deal with equations symbolically rather than numerically. The precise uses and capabilities of these systems differ greatly from one system to another, yet their purpose remains the same: manipulation of symbolic equations.

  3. Symbolab - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolab

    Symbolab is an answer engine [1] that provides step-by-step solutions to mathematical problems in a range of subjects. [2] It was originally developed by Israeli start-up company EqsQuest Ltd., under whom it was released for public use in 2011. In 2020, the company was acquired by American educational technology website Course Hero. [3] [4]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intercept_theorem

    The intercept theorem, also known as Thales's theorem, basic proportionality theorem or side splitter theorem, is an important theorem in elementary geometry about the ratios of various line segments that are created if two rays with a common starting point are intercepted by a pair of parallels.

    Symbolic integration of the algebraic function f(x) = ⁠ x / √ x 4 + 10x 2 − 96x − 71 ⁠ using the computer algebra system Axiom. In mathematics and computer science, [1] computer algebra, also called symbolic computation or algebraic computation, is a scientific area that refers to the study and development of algorithms and software for manipulating mathematical expressions and other ...

    Note the formula on the dot-matrix line above and the answer on the seven-segment line below, as well as the arrow keys allowing the entry to be reviewed and edited. This calculator program has accepted input in infix notation, and returned the answer , ¯. Here the comma is a decimal separator.

  7. Newton's method - Wikipedia

    This x-intercept will typically be a better approximation to the original function's root than the first guess, and the method can be iterated. x n+1 is a better approximation than x n for the root x of the function f (blue curve) If the tangent line to the curve f(x) at x = x n intercepts the x-axis at x n+1 then the slope is

  8. Secant method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secant_method

    Starting with initial values x 0 and x 1, we construct a line through the points (x 0, f(x 0)) and (x 1, f(x 1)), as shown in the picture above.In slope–intercept form, the equation of this line is

  9. Y-intercept - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y-intercept

    The -intercept of () is indicated by the red dot at (=, =). In analytic geometry , using the common convention that the horizontal axis represents a variable x {\displaystyle x} and the vertical axis represents a variable y {\displaystyle y} , a y {\displaystyle y} -intercept or vertical intercept is a point where the graph of a function or ...
