  2. Like terms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Like_terms

    In mathematics, like terms are summands in a sum that differ only by a numerical factor. [1] Like terms can be regrouped by adding their coefficients. Typically, in a polynomial expression , like terms are those that contain the same variables to the same powers , possibly with different coefficients .

  3. Degree of a polynomial - Wikipedia

    Then, f(x)g(x) = 4x 2 + 4x + 1 = 1. Thus deg( f ⋅ g ) = 0 which is not greater than the degrees of f and g (which each had degree 1). Since the norm function is not defined for the zero element of the ring, we consider the degree of the polynomial f ( x ) = 0 to also be undefined so that it follows the rules of a norm in a Euclidean domain.

  4. Equating coefficients - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equating_coefficients

    The unique pair of values a, b satisfying the first two equations is (a, b) = (1, 1); since these values also satisfy the third equation, there do in fact exist a, b such that a times the original first equation plus b times the original second equation equals the original third equation; we conclude that the third equation is linearly ...

    Terms that are either constants or have the same variables raised to the same powers are called like terms. If there are like terms in an expression, one can simplify the expression by combining the like terms. One adds the coefficients and keeps the same variable. + + =

  6. Conditional probability table - Wikipedia

    Likewise, in the same column we find that the probability that y=1 given that x=0 is 2/9 ÷ 6/9 = 2/6. In the same way, we can also find the conditional probabilities for y equalling 0 or 1 given that x=1. Combining these pieces of information gives us this table of conditional probabilities for y:

  7. Exchangeable random variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exchangeable_random_variables

    Partition the sequence into non-overlapping pairs: if the two elements of the pair are equal (00 or 11), discard it; if the two elements of the pair are unequal (01 or 10), keep the first. This yields a sequence of Bernoulli trials with p = 1 / 2 , {\displaystyle p=1/2,} as, by exchangeability, the odds of a given pair being 01 or 10 are equal.

  8. Canonical correlation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canonical_correlation

    In statistics, canonical-correlation analysis (CCA), also called canonical variates analysis, is a way of inferring information from cross-covariance matrices.If we have two vectors X = (X 1, ..., X n) and Y = (Y 1, ..., Y m) of random variables, and there are correlations among the variables, then canonical-correlation analysis will find linear combinations of X and Y that have a maximum ...

  9. Variable (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_(mathematics)

    For example, in the notation f(x, y, z), the three variables may be all independent and the notation represents a function of three variables. On the other hand, if y and z depend on x (are dependent variables) then the notation represents a function of the single independent variable x. [17]
