  2. Consistent and inconsistent equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consistent_and...

    The system + =, + = has exactly one solution: x = 1, y = 2 The nonlinear system + =, + = has the two solutions (x, y) = (1, 0) and (x, y) = (0, 1), while + + =, + + =, + + = has an infinite number of solutions because the third equation is the first equation plus twice the second one and hence contains no independent information; thus any value of z can be chosen and values of x and y can be ...

  3. Linear equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_equation

    Conversely, every line is the set of all solutions of a linear equation. The phrase "linear equation" takes its origin in this correspondence between lines and equations: a linear equation in two variables is an equation whose solutions form a line. If b ≠ 0, the line is the graph of the function of x that has been defined in the preceding ...

  4. Linear algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_algebra

    In three-dimensional Euclidean space, these three planes represent solutions to linear equations, and their intersection represents the set of common solutions: in this case, a unique point. The blue line is the common solution to two of these equations. Linear algebra is the branch of mathematics concerning linear equations such as:

  5. Hyperplane separation theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperplane_separation_theorem

    In geometry, the hyperplane separation theorem is a theorem about disjoint convex sets in n-dimensional Euclidean space.There are several rather similar versions. In one version of the theorem, if both these sets are closed and at least one of them is compact, then there is a hyperplane in between them and even two parallel hyperplanes in between them separated by a gap.

  6. Pigeonhole principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pigeonhole_principle

    Since 10 is greater than 9, the pigeonhole principle says that at least one hole has more than one pigeon. (The top left hole has 2 pigeons.) In mathematics , the pigeonhole principle states that if n items are put into m containers, with n > m , then at least one container must contain more than one item. [ 1 ]

  7. All India Secondary School Examination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_India_Secondary_School...

    All India Secondary School Examination, commonly known as the class 10th board exam, is a centralized public examination that students in schools affiliated with the Central Board of Secondary Education, primarily in India but also in other Indian-patterned schools affiliated to the CBSE across the world, taken at the end of class 10. The board ...

  8. Size effect on structural strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Size_Effect_on_Structural...

    The statistical size effect occurs for a broad class of brittle structures that follow the weakest-link model. This model means that macro-fracture initiation from one material element, or more precisely one representative volume element (RVE), causes the whole structure to fail, like the failure of one link in a chain (Fig. 1a).

  9. Category:Linear algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Linear_algebra

    Linear algebra is the branch of mathematics concerned with the study of vectors, vector spaces (also called linear spaces), linear maps (also called linear transformations), and systems of linear equations. Vector spaces are a central theme in modern mathematics; thus, linear algebra is widely used in both abstract algebra and functional analysis.
