Let's learn how to find the integer solutions of a three variable equation. Problem: Consider the following equation: \( (x-y)^2 + (y-z)^2 + (z - x)^2 = 2018 \). Find the integer solutions to this three variable equation. Discussion: Set x - y = a, y - z = b. Then z - x = - […]
The Idea: Modular arithmetic provides a way to understand Pythagorean Equations. In the following videos we will explore the process.
Try 3 levels of Math problems that seem easy, yet it is intense. Challenge yourself and your friends with these problems. Level 1 - Easy - 10 points The first problem is something that is somewhat elementary. From a biased coin(a coin where the probability of heads is not 1/2) how can you generate two […]

Cauchy's functional equations are very simple. The most familiar one has a simple formula: f(x + y) = f(x) + f(y) But first, for the uninitiated, what is a functional equation after all? What is a functional equation? Usually, functions appear as formulae. For example ( f(x) = x^2 ) is a function. It takes […]
