4 days ago · Cramer’s rule was devised by Gabriel Cramer, a Genevan mathematician, in 1750, and what he devised was a way of solving a system of linear equations using a matrix equation and the determinants of the matrices involved. We are now going to look at Cramer’s rule and how it is used. Let’s start with a system of two linear equations.
2 days ago · In numerical analysis, Newton's method, also known as the Newton–Raphson method, named after Isaac Newton and Joseph Raphson, is a root-finding algorithm which produces successively better approximations to the roots (or zeroes) of a real -valued function.
5 days ago · In this explainer, we will learn how to evaluate, simplify, and multiply pure imaginary numbers and solve equations over the set of pure imaginary numbers.
5 days ago · There are three main approaches (we do not discuss others in this section) to derive the Euler rule: either use finite difference approximation to the derivative or transfer the initial value problem to the Volterra integral equation and then truncate it, or apply Taylor series.
5 days ago · Preface. This section addresses an introduction to the fasinated topic that originated from the work of the American mathematician and meteorologist Edward Norton Lorenz (1917--2008). He discovered what is known now as the deterministic chaos in mathematics and physics.
