If the \(n\)th term of a quadratic sequence is known, we can work out the terms in that sequence and also use knowledge of solving equations to determine if a specified number is a term in the ...

In mathematics, a quadratic is a type of problem that deals with a variable multiplied by itself — an operation known as squaring. This language derives from the area of a square being its side length ...

If the nth term of a sequence is known, it is possible to work out any number in that sequence. Write the first five terms of the sequence \(3n + 4\). \(n\) represents the position in the sequence.

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 ...
