  2. Talk:Cube root - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Cube_root

    The new text would read: "In mathematics, a cube root of a number, denoted or x 1/3, is a number a such that a 3 = x. All real numbers have exactly one real cube root and 2 complex roots, and all nonzero complex numbers have 3 distinct complex cube roots." DRE 18:01, 20 February 2007 (UTC) Reply . Sounds good.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube_rule

    Cube rule. The cube rule or cube law is an empirical observation regarding elections under the first-past-the-post system. The rule suggests that the party getting the most votes is over-represented (and conversely, the party getting the fewest votes is under-represented). It was first formulated in a report on British elections in 1909, then ...

    Doubling the cube Doubling the cube: PB/PA = cube root of 2. The classical problem of doubling the cube can be solved using origami. This construction is due to Peter Messer: A square of paper is first creased into three equal strips as shown in the diagram. Then the bottom edge is positioned so the corner point P is on the top edge and the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_function

    Here the function is f(x) = (x3 + 3x2 − 6x − 8)/4. In mathematics, a cubic function is a function of the form that is, a polynomial function of degree three. In many texts, the coefficients a, b, c, and d are supposed to be real numbers, and the function is considered as a real function that maps real numbers to real numbers or as a complex ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square–cube_law

    The square–cube law was first mentioned in Two New Sciences (1638). The square–cube law (or cube–square law) is a mathematical principle, applied in a variety of scientific fields, which describes the relationship between the volume and the surface area as a shape's size increases or decreases. It was first [dubious – discuss] described ...

    It is asserted in the motivations (first paragraph of Section motivation that Chebyshev cube root behaves better than cubic root. It is a unfounded and non neutral original research, as, for each asserted inconvenience of the cubic root function one may provide a similar inconvenience of the Chebyshev cubic root , as it is defined in the page ...
