0 DejMar Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 Spoiler An answer to the abstract is yes. An equation is an expression that evaluates to a certain value or set of values. A formula is an equation in which uses a set of variables to show there exists a relationship between the variables used in the expression. Let X(R(S)) represent a function of an expression such that S is the set of variables used by the expression and R(S) is the function that expresses the relationship of those variables. Let Y represent the result or set of results of the equation. Then, Y = X(R(S)) could be a formula for each and every existing mathematics equation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Brainy Binary Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 If E=mc2 and F=ma are correct equations then these can be merge via certain methods as follow: E+F =mc2 +ma or E-F =mc2 - ma or E-ma =mc2 -F or EF=ac2m3 or F/E =a/c2 To make it easier, you can do any operation with one side of equation 2 to one side of equation 1 as long as you do the same with other side of equation 2 to the other side of equation 1. More equations means more number of ways to merge them in single equation or formulation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More equations means more number of ways to merge them in single equation or formulation. If E=mc2 and F=ma then you can say E/c2 = F/a but not much more. E+F has no meaning. You can't meaningfully add two things that are not measures of the same quantity, like the energy it takes to melt a gram of ice and the force it takes to type the letter F on your computer keyboard. Or the number, in dozens, of apples in basket A and the elapsed time, in centuries, since the oranges in basket B were picked. It would make as much sense to say that the knowledge contained in all the books of the world could be preserved in a single book comprising a string of all their first words then all their second words and so forth. In a way, it's all there in a single book, but the destruction of syntax and context destroys meaning and knowledge as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
