The meaning of "Equivalent" in various phrases and sentences
Q:
O que significa equivalent as a noun?
A:
Something that is roughly the same as something else. For example, recipes might say “Add 1 cup of canola oil or equivalent.” It means to add canola oil or something very similar, like another kind of vegetable oil that will achieve the same purpose.
Q:
O que significa equivalent representation?
A:
I’m not too sure as I haven’t studied maths to a level where I learned about equivalent representation, but here is what I found from a chapter of an advanced maths book:
“Two matrix representations {D(g)} , {D′(g)} of the same dimension are called
equivalent if and only if there exist a matrix S, d × d, non–singular, such that:
∀g ∈ G,D’(g) = SD(g)S^-1
Note that the same matrix S has to connect the matrices D(g) and D′(g) for all the elements of G. The two representations correspond to the same realization of the group structure seen in two different bases. The matrix S is the matrix that implements the transformation from one basis to the other.”
If this is not what you’re looking for, I’m afraid I won’t be of much help...

Q:
O que significa the rather silly equivalent equation?
A:
From what I can infer from this, the person was probably comparing two equations that would've resulted in the same answer.
However, one of them might have been too complicated/indirect and would seem rather silly if you chose to use that equation. The equation could also be so obvious that it is deemed 'silly'.
Perhaps a brief example might be:
If x=1, find the value of 2x.
Instead of multiplying the given equation by 2, the guy finds 5x and divides it by 2.5. Both will give you the same answer (2x=2) but the second equation would be rather silly to use. :)

Translations of "Equivalent"
Q:
Como é que se diz isto em Inglês (EUA)? What is the closest equivalent for the Russian lexical gap "интеллигенция/ интеллигент"?
A:
Well, after researching this word, it does indeed appear to be a hard one to translate into English. If I am correct, then интеллигенция means either 1: "those in society who have jobs that require significant brainpower and requires them to be highly intelligent, and highly educated such as doctors, scientists and writers". or 2: "simply those in society who are highly intelligent and well educated, regardless of if they have a job or not." Either way, this kind of sounds like it is a "class system" like how we have the working class, middle class, and upper class. But instead of the class being based on money and power, it is a class based on intelligence. Is this accurate? if so, what are the other classes called for the less intelligent people? If this is accurate, then the closest I can think of is "white collar." This term refers to those who work in a "professional environment", as opposed to "blue collar," which is those who work manual labour jobs. But white collar refers to those jobs that would usually require you to wear a suit (hence white collar) such as businessmen, financial advisors, attorneys, salespeople etc and more so implies that they would be higher paid than a blue collar worker so it's to do with money really and not intelligence. "Upper class" is kind of close, but again, it is to do with money and power (and status) more than intelligence, although on average, members of the upper class will be significantly more educated than the rest of us.
It appears there really is no word even close to expressing the idea that интеллигенция does. Maybe we could describe it in a sentence. "Those in society with the most mentally challenging/demanding jobs" if my first definition was correct. Or "the most highly intellectual stratum of society" if the second definition is more fitting.

Q:
Como é que se diz isto em Inglês (EUA)? what's the equivalent of lactose free milk in USA, lets say you would like to get a capuchino at a Starbucks but with lactose free milk. Do you know what I mean? One day someone told me that there is no such type of milk in USA.
A:
Sorry for my confusing answer!!
Lactose-free milk is available at the grocery store, usually "lactaid" brand. Some coffee shops may use it, It just seems that plant-based options have become more popular. I don't know for sure which ones will have real lactose-free milk.
1 or 2 percent milk will still have lactose, i think it only has less fat, not less sugar (lactose).

A:
Yes! We say "great/good/perfect timing!" You can pick what word to use. You can also say "bad timing" for things that happen at the same time but make things worse as a result. I don't know if you can use "ça tombe à pique" like that.
Mais oui en tous cas "good timing!" est la même idée. J'ai demandé la même question à l'envers quand j'étais à Paris
