  2. Folium of Descartes - Wikipedia

    It is symmetrical about the line =. As such, the two intersect at the origin and at the point ( 3 a / 2 , 3 a / 2 ) {\displaystyle (3a/2,3a/2)} . Implicit differentiation gives the formula for the slope of the tangent line to this curve to be [ 3 ] d y d x = a y − x 2 y 2 − a x . {\displaystyle {\frac {dy}{dx}}={\frac {ay-x^{2}}{y^{2}-ax}}.}

    The y-intercept is the initial value = = at =. The slope a measures the rate of change of the output y per unit change in the input x. In the graph, moving one unit to the right (increasing x by 1) moves the y-value up by a: that is, (+) = +.

  4. Graph of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_of_a_function

    Given a function: from a set X (the domain) to a set Y (the codomain), the graph of the function is the set [4] = {(, ()):}, which is a subset of the Cartesian product.In the definition of a function in terms of set theory, it is common to identify a function with its graph, although, formally, a function is formed by the triple consisting of its domain, its codomain and its graph.

  5. Slope field - Wikipedia

    The slope field of =, with the blue, red, and turquoise lines being +, , and , respectively.. A slope field (also called a direction field [1]) is a graphical representation of the solutions to a first-order differential equation [2] of a scalar function.

  6. Asymptote - Wikipedia

    Also, y → ∞ as t → 0 from the right, and the distance between the curve and the y-axis is t which approaches 0 as t → 0. So the y-axis is also an asymptote. A similar argument shows that the lower left branch of the curve also has the same two lines as asymptotes.

  7. Linear equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_equation

    Vertical line of equation x = a Horizontal line of equation y = b. Each solution (x, y) of a linear equation + + = may be viewed as the Cartesian coordinates of a point in the Euclidean plane. With this interpretation, all solutions of the equation form a line, provided that a and b are not both zero. Conversely, every line is the set of all ...

  8. Graph (discrete mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_(discrete_mathematics)

    A graph with three vertices and three edges. A graph (sometimes called an undirected graph to distinguish it from a directed graph, or a simple graph to distinguish it from a multigraph) [4] [5] is a pair G = (V, E), where V is a set whose elements are called vertices (singular: vertex), and E is a set of unordered pairs {,} of vertices, whose elements are called edges (sometimes links or lines).

  9. 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]
