R Markdown Math Equation Alignment


I am writing a bunch of math equations in R Markdown inside Rstudio. And I want to align the content either to the left or center. However, seems like the align will align them to the right as default.

I did some google and some of them told me to use a package called ragged2e, but it did not work when I added it in. I am wondering if this should be a latex question or rmarkdown question.


Solution

  • I'm not quite sure what you're going for here, but line breaks, \\ go at the end of the line, not the beginning, and the aligmnent operator is &. So this:

    $$
    \begin{aligned}
     AR(p): Y_i &= c + \epsilon_i + \phi_i Y_{i-1} \dots \\
     Y_{i} &= c + \phi_i Y_{i-1} \dots
    \end{aligned}
    $$
    

    Produces this:
