Σελίδα 262 - The logarithm of any power of a number is equal to the logarithm of the number multiplied by the exponent of the power.
Σελίδα 54 - There is a number consisting of two digits, the second of which is greater than the first, and if the number be divided by the sum of its digits, the quotient is 4...

Σελίδα 68 - Ans. —j—. m-\-n 13. Divide the number 46 into two parts, so that when the one is divided by 7, and the other by 3, the sum of the quotients == 10. Ans. 28 and 18. 14. All my journeyings taken together, says a traveller, amount to 3040 miles; of which I have travelled 3£ times as much by water as on horseback, and 2.
Σελίδα 1 - ALGEBRA. CHAPTER I. FUNDAMENTAL PROCESSES OF ALGEBRA. SECTION I. Definitions and Notation. 1. Algebra, according to the usual definition, is that branch of mathematics in which the quantities considered are represented by the letters of the alphabet, and the operations to be performed upon them are indicated by signs. In this sense it would embrace almost the whole science of mathematics, elementary geometry alone being excepted. It is, consequently, subject in common use to some limitations, which...
Σελίδα 262 - The logarithm of the quotient is equal to the logarithm of the dividend, diminished by the logarithm of the divisor.
Σελίδα 205 - A traveller sets out for a certain place, and travels 1 mile the first day, 2 the second, and so on. In 5 days afterwards another sets out, and travels 12 miles a day. How long and how far must he travel to overtake the first ? 6.
