    Jan 19, 2022 · Approximate solution to an equation with a high-degree polynomial Ask Question Asked 3 years, 11 months ago Modified 3 years, 11 months ago

  3. What exactly is "approximation"? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    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 …

  4. What is the approximate identity? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Feb 25, 2017 · An approximate identity (in the sense that you've described) is a sequence of operators, usually derived from some "nice" class, that converge to the identity operator in the …

  5. exponential function - Feynman's Trick for Approximating $e^x ...

    Jul 7, 2017 · And he could approximate small values by performing some mental math to get an accurate approximation to three decimal places. For example, approximating $e^ {3.3}$, we …

  6. notation - Different use of approximate equality symbols

    Apr 12, 2016 · I have been wondering for a long time whether there is a unequivocal way to define and use the symbols commonly adopted for an approximate equality between two quantities. I …

  7. Approximate $\coth (x)$ around $x = 0$ - Mathematics Stack …

    Apr 13, 2017 · I'm trying to approximate $\coth (x)$ around $x = 0$, up to say, third order in $x$. Now obviously a simple taylor expansion doesn't work, as it diverges around $x = 0$.

  8. Is there a "greater than about" symbol? - Mathematics Stack …

    Aug 12, 2015 · To indicate approximate equality, one can use ≃, ≅, ~, ♎, or ≒. I need to indicate an approximate inequality. Specifically, I know A is greater than a quantity of approximately B. …

  9. Use of approximation sign - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Aug 2, 2017 · The "and" is a pointer that (a) first we approximate and (b) then we compute exactly. The final result is an approximation only because of (a). Related to this, it is useful to …
