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 ...

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 ...

A number machine is a way of writing rules using a flow diagram. The equation \(3j - 6 = 9\) can be shown on a number machine by writing out the functions that have been applied to \(j\) in the order ...

Simultaneous equations like 𝒚 = 2𝒙 - 1 and 𝒚 = 𝒙 + 1 can be represented graphically. To solve the equations graphically, the two lines 𝒚 = 𝒙 + 1 and 𝒚 = 2𝒙 - 1 are drawn on the same diagram.

Differential equations are fundamental tools in physics: they are used to describe phenomena ranging from fluid dynamics to general relativity. But when these equations become stiff (i.e. they involve ...

Researchers from the Institute of Cosmos Sciences of the University of Barcelona (ICCUB) have developed a new framework based ...
