  2. 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 ...

  3. Casio V.P.A.M. calculators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casio_V.P.A.M._calculators

    Casio V.P.A.M. calculators are scientific calculators made by Casio which use Casio's Visually Perfect Algebraic Method (V.P.A.M.), Natural Display or Natural V.P.A.M. input methods. V.P.A.M. is an infix system for entering mathematical expressions, used by Casio in most of its current scientific calculators.

  4. Calculator input methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculator_input_methods

    On a single-step or immediate-execution calculator, the user presses a key for each operation, calculating all the intermediate results, before the final value is shown. [1] [2] [3] On an expression or formula calculator, one types in an expression and then presses a key, such as "=" or "Enter", to evaluate the expression.

  5. Scientific notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_notation

    Any real number can be written in the form m × 10 ^ n in many ways: for example, 350 can be written as 3.5 × 10 2 or 35 × 10 1 or 350 × 10 0. In normalized scientific notation (called "standard form" in the United Kingdom), the exponent n is chosen so that the absolute value of m remains at least one but less than ten (1 ≤ | m | < 10).

  6. System of linear equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_linear_equations

    The solution set for the equations x − y = −1 and 3x + y = 9 is the single point (2, 3). A solution of a linear system is an assignment of values to the variables ,, …, such that each of the equations is satisfied. The set of all possible solutions is called the solution set. [5]

  7. Smith normal form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_normal_form

    In mathematics, the Smith normal form (sometimes abbreviated SNF [1]) is a normal form that can be defined for any matrix (not necessarily square) with entries in a principal ideal domain (PID). The Smith normal form of a matrix is diagonal , and can be obtained from the original matrix by multiplying on the left and right by invertible square ...

  8. Slide rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slide_rule

    Quadratic equations of the form + + = can be solved by first reducing the equation to the form + = (where = / and = /), and then aligning the index ("1") of the C scale to the value on the D scale. The cursor is then moved along the rule until a position is found where the numbers on the CI and D scales add up to p {\displaystyle p} .

  9. Skolem normal form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skolem_normal_form

    In mathematical logic, a formula of first-order logic is in Skolem normal form if it is in prenex normal form with only universal first-order quantifiers. Every first-order formula may be converted into Skolem normal form while not changing its satisfiability via a process called Skolemization (sometimes spelled Skolemnization ).
