In mathematical notation, what are the usage differences between the various approximately-equal signs "≈", "≃", and "≅"? The Unicode standard lists all of them inside the Mathematical Operators B...

One can, for example, approximate continuous functions with polynomial functions, in which case the idea is to keep the area between the original function and the approximating function small. One can …

We want to (manually) approximate $\sqrt {2}$ by using the first few terms of the binomial series expansion of \begin {align*} \sqrt {1-2x}&= \sum_ {n=0}^\infty \binom {\frac {1} {2}} {n} ( …

Oct 22, 2024 · Is there a way to derive a curve function for the Fibonacci sequence to plot an approximation of the increase in value for each iteration? Please bear with me if I'm using the wrong …

Aug 15, 2016 · My question is if I can find, or if there are known, substitutions for this non-elementary function in terms of elementary ones. In the sense above, i.e. the approximation is …

Basically, to approximate the location of a root of a function, we approximate the function locally by its tangent, find the tangents root instead, and that value is a decent approximation for the location of …
