Third Order Quadratic Equations

Solving Quadratic Equations

REMEMBER, that in a quadratic equation:

1. We are trying to find out the solution to x which makes the left hand sideof the = sign equal theright hand side of the = sign
2. There will always be two solutions. This is because the x is to the power of 2
3. It is always necessary to check the solutions to make sure that you really do have the correct answers and have not made any mistakes along the way
4. A negative number multiplied by a positive number will always be a negativenumber whereas a positive number multiplied by a positive number will be apositive number
5. In some questions they substitute the letter x for another letter although in essence you use the same method for finding the value of that letter

the McKay-Thompson series

Monstrous moonshine was born (sometime in 1978) the moment John McKay realized that the linear term in the j-function is surprisingly close to the dimension of the smallest non-trivial irreducible representation of the monster group, which is 196883. Note that at that time, the Monster hasn’t been constructed yet, and, the only traces of its possible existence were kept as semi-secret information in a huge ledger (costing 80 pounds…) kept in the Atlas-office at Cambridge. Included were 8 hu

D2-branes from M2-branes, three-algebras, and associators

Today, I certainly recommend you the hep-th paper bySunil Mukhi, Constantinos Papageorgakiswho investigate a new type of a Higgs mechanism in a new type of theory relevant for M-theory membranes. A condensate of a 3-algebra-valued eighth scalar is claimed to convert a topological field theory from M2-branes to the conventional Yang-Mills theory defined on D2-branes. The authors wisely posted the paper as the first paper on the hep-th archive. They did the right thing because the paper is arguab

Teaching When I decided to go into teaching back around 1990, I recall my dad saying something to the affect, “I thought I raised you better than that…..” Now it was said mainly in jest, but it carried a certain element of truth to it. He was pretty jaded by then. He could see where education was heading. Well I teach kindergarten. And this is the amazing part, I really love it. Kindergarten kids are the most amazing things. For the most part, they are so excited to be learning. Sure, they love

India tests ballistic missile capable of reaching China

India tests ballistic missile capable of reaching China The world just got much safer...India has 'deterrent' just like USA. India successfully tested a nuclear-capable missile Wednesday that can hit targets deep inside China, joining the ranks of nations possessing intermediate-range missile capacity, the defence ministry said. India, which traces its civilization back 5,000 years, won independence from Britain in 1947 in a welter of sectarian bloodshed as the subcontinent was partitioned

Regression Example 1

setup Let’s just fit a parabola to noisy data. Instead of using real data I will manufacture some. First I pick some x values; you might note that they do not have to be equally spaced. Now I generate 5 random variables u from a normal(0, .05) distribution. (the 2nd param is std dev, not variance.) my data is generated as . that is, my 5 noise values are and my 5 data values are Here, then, are my (x,y) points: Here is a plot of the true function without noise (y = x^2 + 2) and

Looking at Clouds (Embedded Systems Programming Magazine)

It turns out that Brent was wrong when he combined bisection with parabolic interpolation. There's a better way to converge on a minimum.
