Math teachers have stymied students for hundreds of years by sticking goats in strangely shaped fields. Learn why one grazing goat problem has stumped mathematicians for more than a century. If you’ve ...

We mentioned before about the \(+ c\) term. We are now going to look at how to find the value of \(c\) when additional information is given in the question.

Polynomial equations are a cornerstone of modern science, providing a mathematical basis for celestial mechanics, computer graphics, market growth predictions and much more. But although most high ...

We have looked at how to solve equations with one unknown value, but what happens when there are two unknown values? An equation with two unknown values will have infinitely many solutions. or \(x=100 ...

"Even the +, −, =, and x signs we take for granted only came into widespread use in the 17th century. Which means that the earlier algebraists we know of … all had expressed their equations mostly in ...

Microsoft Excel is a great Office application from Microsoft and it does not need any introduction. It helps every one of us, in many ways by making our tasks simpler. In this post we will see how to ...

An analog calculator built in the 1930s by Vannevar Bush at MIT. Designed to solve differential equations, the Differential Analyzer was used in World War II to calculate ballistics tables that showed ...

A mathematician at Carnegie Mellon University has developed an easier way to solve quadratic equations. The mathematician hopes this method will help students avoid memorizing obtuse formulas. His ...
