Excel can solve equations through several of its mathematical functions, but the single Excel tool that works on the largest variety of equations is the program's Solver Add-in. This tool reads an ...

Such functions are called linear, for reasons that I'll explain soon enough (well, we generally want another condition for linear functions involving scalar multiples of the variable, but I'll ...

This paper describes how linear programming models can be used to solve crude-oil producing problems for the purpose of economic planning of coordinated operations. Although the methods of linear ...

Now that you've got a good sense of how to "speak" R, let's use it with linear regression to make distinctive predictions. The R system has three components: a scripting language, an interactive ...

In this problem, the optimal path is one that maximizes the expected utility, with the utility function being piecewise-linear and concave. Such a utility function can be used to approximate nonlinear ...
