2. Cube root - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube_root

   Cube root. In mathematics, a cube root of a number x is a number y such that y3 = x. All nonzero real numbers have exactly one real cube root and a pair of complex conjugate cube roots, and all nonzero complex numbers have three distinct complex cube roots. For example, the real cube root of 8, denoted , is 2, because 23 = 8, while the other ...

3. Cubic equation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_equation

   Here the function is and therefore the three real roots are 2, −1 and −4. In algebra, a cubic equation in one variable is an equation of the form in which a is not zero. The solutions of this equation are called roots of the cubic function defined by the left-hand side of the equation. If all of the coefficients a, b, c, and d of the cubic ...

   From the multiplication tables, the square root of the mantissa must be 8 point something because 8 × 8 is 64, but 9 × 9 is 81, too big, so k is 8; something is the decimal representation of R. The fraction R is 75 - k 2 = 11, the numerator, and 81 - k 2 = 17, the denominator. 11/17 is a little less than 12/18, which is 2/3s or .67, so guess ...

5. Square root - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_root

   Square root. Notation for the (principal) square root of x. For example, √ 25 = 5, since 25 = 5 ⋅ 5, or 52 (5 squared). In mathematics, a square root of a number x is a number y such that ; in other words, a number y whose square (the result of multiplying the number by itself, or ) is x. [1] For example, 4 and −4 are square roots of 16 ...

6. Cubic function - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_function

   Cubic function. Graph of a cubic function with 3 real roots (where the curve crosses the horizontal axis—where y = 0). The case shown has two critical points. 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.

7. Quadratic formula - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_formula

   Quadratic formula. The roots of the quadratic function y = ⁠ 1 2 ⁠x2 − 3x + ⁠ 5 2 ⁠ are the places where the graph intersects the x -axis, the values x = 1 and x = 5. They can be found via the quadratic formula. In elementary algebra, the quadratic formula is a closed-form expression describing the solutions of a quadratic equation.
