A nonlinear function is most easily described as whatever is not a linear function. Learn what a linear function is and be able to define a nonlinear function; using examples, learn how to distinguish between the two. What are Linear Functions? The easiest way to define a nonlinear function is as a function that is … Read more
This tutorial will teach you how to read a periodic table. Let’s take a closer look at the different groups of the periodic table. You will also learn about the different properties of the periodic table groups, periods, and families. How to Read the Periodic Table? Vocabulary Elements: Substances consisting of only one atom. Groups: The vertical … Read more
The Discriminant When does ax2+bx+c=0 have a real solution? Well, we know how to find the solutions using the quadratic formula: x=−b±√b2−4ac2a. That makes it look like we can always get solutions. However, we can’t always exercise a square root! Sometimes you’ll see a negative number under the radical. A negative under the radical means there is no real … Read more
We explain the difference between polar and non-polar bonds in this chemistry tutorial. Then we will tell you what a polar molecule is, and what a non-polar molecule is. Last but not least, you discover what a dipole moment is. What do polar and non-polar bonds mean? In simple terms, polar means oppositely charged while … Read more
Relations and Functions are the most essential topics in algebra. Relations and functions – these are the two different words having separate meanings mathematically. You might get confused about their difference. Before we go deeper, let’s understand the variation between both with a simple example. An ordered pair is described as (INPUT, OUTPUT): The relation … Read more
Inverse Property of Addition is what number you add to a provided number to make the sum zero. For instance, if we take the number 3 and add -3 to it, the result is zero. Therefore, the additive inverse of 3 is -3. We come across such positions in our daily life where we nullify … Read more
The nucleic acids ribonucleic acid (RNA) and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are among the most important molecules in cell biology, which are responsible for storing and transmitting genetic information in all living things. Despite the fact that they are both linear polymers containing sugars, phosphates, and bases, there are a few key differences between them. Both … Read more
The geometric progression is a sequence in which every term bears a constant ratio to its predecessor. These sequences are referred to as geometric progressions. In order to get the next term in the geometric progression, we have to multiply with a fixed term known as the common ratio, every time, and we can also divide the … Read more
The standard form is referred to as the general method of representing any type of notation. A standard form formula represents the commonly accepted form of an equation, which is the standard form. As an example – The standard form of a polynomial is to write the terms with the highest degree first (descending order … Read more
How to Find the Range of a Function? Mathematical functions can be compared to vending machines. They give back some cookies or cans in exchange for the money they receive. Similarly, functions take numbers as inputs and return results as outputs. The reality is that everything in real life can be formulated and solved with the … Read more
