  2. Graph of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_of_a_function

    Given a function: from a set X (the domain) to a set Y (the codomain), the graph of the function is the set [4] = {(, ()):}, which is a subset of the Cartesian product.In the definition of a function in terms of set theory, it is common to identify a function with its graph, although, formally, a function is formed by the triple consisting of its domain, its codomain and its graph.

  3. Inverse function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_function

    The graphs of y = f(x) and y = f1 (x). The dotted line is y = x. If f is invertible, then the graph of the function = is the same as the graph of the equation = (). This is identical to the equation y = f(x) that defines the graph of f, except that the roles of x and y have

  4. Multiplicative inverse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplicative_inverse

    The graph forms a rectangular hyperbola. In mathematics, a multiplicative inverse or reciprocal for a number x, denoted by 1/ x or x1, is a number which when multiplied by x yields the multiplicative identity, 1. The multiplicative inverse of a fraction a / b is b / a. For the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number.

  5. Function (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_(mathematics)

    e. In mathematics, a function from a set X to a set Y assigns to each element of X exactly one element of Y. [ 1] The set X is called the domain of the function [ 2] and the set Y is called the codomain of the function. [ 3] Functions were originally the idealization of how a varying quantity depends on another quantity.

  6. 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.

  7. Polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial

    The graph of a degree 1 polynomial (or linear function) f(x) = a0 + a1x, where a1 ≠ 0, is an oblique line with y-intercept a0 and slope a1 . The graph of a degree 2 polynomial. f(x) = a0 + a1x + a2x2, where a2 ≠ 0. is a parabola . The graph of a degree 3 polynomial. f(x) = a0 + a1x + a2x2 + a3x3, where a3 ≠ 0.

  8. Closed graph theorem (functional analysis) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed_graph_theorem...

    The Borel graph theorem, proved by L. Schwartz, shows that the closed graph theorem is valid for linear maps defined on and valued in most spaces encountered in analysis. [10] Recall that a topological space is called a Polish space if it is a separable complete metrizable space and that a Souslin space is the continuous image of a Polish space.

  9. Floor and ceiling functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floor_and_ceiling_functions

    Ceiling function. In mathematics, the floor function is the function that takes as input a real number x, and gives as output the greatest integer less than or equal to x, denoted ⌊x⌋ or floor (x). Similarly, the ceiling function maps x to the smallest integer greater than or equal to x, denoted ⌈x⌉ or ceil (x). [ 1]
