An algebraic equation contains one or more letters in it. Each letter in the equation is called a variable. A variable can change in value. We guess at different values for each letter until our ...

A UNSW Sydney mathematician has discovered a new method to tackle algebra's oldest challenge—solving higher polynomial equations. Polynomials are equations involving a variable raised to powers, such ...

Excel can solve equations through several of its mathematical functions, but the single Excel tool that works on the largest variety of equations is the program's Solver Add-in. This tool reads an ...

Algebra can be demystified with the right approach. Transforming word problems into mathematical expressions is crucial, alongside using formula sheets and colour-coding equations for clarity.

Many people think of computers as "math experts" compared with us humans. While we can't solve equations as quickly as a machine, we shouldn't put too much faith in their accuracy because computers ...

So far as I can ascertain, the method referred to is not known, at least in its complete form. It is a development of a method described by me in a previous paper (“Verb Functions, with Notes on the ...
