where a, b, and c are numerical constants and c is not equal to zero. Note that if c were zero, the function would be linear. An advantage of this notation is that it can easily be generalized by ...

The graph below has a turning point (3, -2). Write down the nature of the turning point and the equation of the axis of symmetry. For the parabola \(y=(x+6)(x-4)\) determine the coordinates and nature ...

Abstract: The completeness of Boussinesq's and Love's axisymmetric stress functions are examined without excluding the axis of axisymmetry. Contrasting properties are found for the apparently similar ...
