algebraic expressions are often difficult to solve directly. Instead, students need to learn how to transform them according to certain laws, often to determine an unknown quantity. Some tools to introduce students to the abstract side of algebra rely on concrete models and visualizations of equations, including geomet...
In mathematics, a quintic function is a function of the form g ( x ) = a x 5 + b x 4 + c x 3 + d x 2 + e x + f , {\displaystyle g(x)=ax^{5}+bx^{4}+cx^{3}+dx^{2}+ex+f,\,} where a, b, c, d, e and f are members of a field, typically the rational numbers, the real numbers or the complex numbers, and a is nonzero.

As solving reducible quintic equations reduces immediately to solving polynomials of lower degree, only irreducible quintic equations are considered in the remainder of this section, and the term "quintic" will refer only to irreducible quintics.

In multilinear algebra, a tensor contraction is an operation on a tensor that arises from the canonical pairing of a vector space and its dual.
