Quadratic equations are polynomials, meaning strings of math terms. An expression like “x + 4” is a polynomial. They can have ...

We solve polynomials algebraically in order to determine the roots - where a curve cuts the \(x\)-axis. A root of a polynomial function, \(f(x)\), is a value for \(x\) for which \(f(x) = 0\).

A procedure is introduced for solving systems of polynomial equations that need to be solved repetitively with varying coefficients. The procedure is based on the cheater's homotopy, a continuation ...
