    Solution of Algebraic & Transcendental Equation Introduction When mathematically modeling real life situations we often come across equations in the form of f(x)=0. These equations can either be in the form of algebraic or transcendental equations. In certain cases, these equations may prove to be difficult to solve, as the equation may not have an exact answer. A problem of great importance in science and engineering is that of determining the roots/zeros of an equation of the form

    Real World Radical Formulas MAT222: Intermediate Algebra Instructor Peter Surgent August 31, 2014 Real World Radical Formulas Radical formulas are used in many fields of the real world; some examples are in finance, medicine, engineering, and physics. These are just a few. In the finance department they use it to find the interest, depreciation and compound interests. In medicine it can be used to calculate the Body Surface of an adult (BSA), in engineering it can be used to measure voltage

    function. Exponential functions are written as in the form as f(x) = bx, where b > 0 and b ≠ 1 In this function b represents the base and the power x is the exponent. f(x) = a b x The domain of f(x) = a b x is all real numbers. The range of f(x) = a b x is all positive real numbers, f(x) > 0 or y > 0 In this equation a is unable to equal one yet is has to be greater than zero, but it is the y-intercept and b is the base having a as well as b together allows us to determine the exponential functions

    x-intercept we are going to use the discriminant of the quadratic equation which is b^2-4ac. Plugging the numbers, it will be (-1)^2-4(2)(2) the solution will be a negative fifteen. The rule of a discriminant is that there cannot be negative numbers for x, this time there are no x-intercept. the x-intercept does not exist we will replace it with a zero so the y-intercept can be found, by plugging the numbers y=2(0)^2-0+2 we will have the answer of y=2. The quadratic equation will be crossing the y-intercept

    is going down , so f(x) approches negative infinity. Local extrema is basically all local maximums and minimums on a functions graph. Local extrema occurs at criticla points on the graph where the derivative is zero or undefined. To find the exact number of a local extrema using your polynomial , first find the first derivative of f using the power rule. Then you will set the derivative to zero and solve for x. The values you get are the critical points which is also your local extrema. To find the

    To solve for the scalars matrix A is augmented with the original vector. This augmented matrix is then row reduced to reduced echelon form. This will result in the number of times each vector should be pressed, either zero or once.

    One of the oldest and most commonly known and used concepts in mathematics is that of Pi (π). In the earliest of know human civilizations, people realized the importance of finding the exact value of π for practical reasons. Even by todays standards, we still only need to know the exact value of π to a few decimal place values, although that hasn’t stopped mathematicians from pursuing a more accurate representation for its value throughout time. The earliest know approximations for the value

    Abstract This essay determine how 100 congressional seats should be divided among the 10 states of the union. The number of seats in a state should (in any fair distribution) be proportional to its ratio in the population. Therefore rounding according to some (acceptable) rule should be applied. Below you will see the table showing the Hamilton method of apportionment to determine the number of seats each state would receive. Hamilton Method (Named for Alexander Hamilton) Implementing this method
