Sometimes, it’s easy for a computer to predict the future. Simple phenomena, such as how sap flows down a tree trunk, are straightforward and can be captured in a few lines of code using what ...

SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis, Vol. 13, No. 5 (Oct., 1976), pp. 705-719 (15 pages) A method is described whereby certain nonlinear Volterra integral equations may be numerically solved by ...

Grade school math students are likely familiar with teachers admonishing them not to just guess the answer to a problem. But a new proof establishes that, in fact, the right kind of guessing is ...

Introduces ordinary differential equations, systems of linear equations, matrices, determinants, vector spaces, linear transformations, and systems of linear differential equations. Prereq., APPM 1360 ...

You can use a SOLVE statement to solve the nonlinear equation system for some variables when the values of other variables are given. Consider the demand and supply model shown in the preceding ...

Solving an equation means finding the value or values for which the two expressions on each side of the equals sign are equal. One of the most common methods used to solve equations is the balance ...

Carpathian Journal of Mathematics, Vol. 31, No. 1 (2015), pp. 11-30 (20 pages) We use the method of recurrent functions to provide a new semilocal convergence analysis for secant-like methods in order ...

Make sure you are confident in calculating with negative numbers, which is a skill often needed to solve equations. To solve the equation, do the inverse operation. The inverse of multiplying by 12 is ...
