  2. Cube (algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube_(algebra)

    The cube operation can also be defined for any other mathematical expression, for example (x + 1) 3. The cube is also the number multiplied by its square: n 3 = n × n 2 = n × n × n. The cube function is the function xx 3 (often denoted y = x 3) that maps a number to its cube. It is an odd function, as (−n) 3 = −(n 3).

  3. Cubic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_equation

    For solving the cubic equation x 3 + m 2 x = n where n > 0, Omar Khayyám constructed the parabola y = x 2 /m, the circle that has as a diameter the line segment [0, n/m 2] on the positive x-axis, and a vertical line through the point where the circle and the parabola intersect above the x-axis.

  4. Cubic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_function

    The roots, stationary points, inflection point and concavity of a cubic polynomial x 3 − 6x 2 + 9x − 4 (solid black curve) and its first (dashed red) and second (dotted orange) derivatives. The critical points of a cubic function are its stationary points , that is the points where the slope of the function is zero. [ 2 ]

    To determine the value (), note that we rotated the plane so that the line x+y = z now runs vertically with x-intercept equal to c. So c is just the distance from the origin to the line x + y = z along the perpendicular bisector, which meets the line at its nearest point to the origin, in this case ( z / 2 , z / 2 ) {\displaystyle (z/2,z/2)\,} .

    In elementary algebra, the binomial theorem (or binomial expansion) describes the algebraic expansion of powers of a binomial.According to the theorem, the power ⁠ (+) ⁠ expands into a polynomial with terms of the form ⁠ ⁠, where the exponents ⁠ ⁠ and ⁠ ⁠ are nonnegative integers satisfying ⁠ + = ⁠ and the coefficient ⁠ ⁠ of each term is a specific positive integer ...

  7. Data transformation (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_transformation...

    Equation: = + Meaning: A unit increase in X is associated with an average of b units increase in Y. Equation: ⁡ = + (From exponentiating both sides of the equation: =) Meaning: A unit increase in X is associated with an average increase of b units in ⁡ (), or equivalently, Y increases on an average by a multiplicative factor of .

    The cubic mean is used to predict the life expectancy of machine parts. [3] [4] [5] [6]The cubic mean wind speed has been used a measure of local potential for wind energy. [7]

  9. Copula (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copula_(statistics)

    where (,) is the copula density function, () and () are the marginal probability density functions of X and Y, respectively. There are four elements in this equation, and if any three elements are known, the fourth element can be calculated. For example, it may be used,
