Can anyone provide citations for the following formula: x=(a-b)((x-min⁡(x))/(max⁡(x)-min⁡(x))+a

I have tried this formula and I got good results

    One reason you can't find a citation might be that the formula is incorrect. I think you mean x=(b-a)((x-min⁡(x))/(max⁡(x)-min⁡(x))+a for some $a < b$. – Sycorax Jan 29 '18 at 19:08
