...two examples of transposition ("place across"). Rule. — A term may be transposed from one member of an equation to the other, provided its sign is changed. HISTORICAL NOTE. — About the first quarter of the ninth century an Arabian mathematician, Mohammed ben Musa, wrote...

...important application of Principles 1 and 2 is transposition, which has already been mentioned on p. 18. A term may be transposed from one side of an equation to the other side if its sign is changed. Thus, in solving the equation 8 x .- 6 = 5 x + 12, we find, by transposition,...

...without destroying the equality. 8. The whole of anything is equal to the sum of all its parts. 9. A term may be transposed from one side of an equation to the other, provided its sign is changed. 10. If the same term preceded by the same sign occurs in both sides of an equation, that term may be...

...Logical System under consideration is, that, in the latter as well as in the former, a literal symbol may be transposed from one side of an equation to the other by changing the sign of operation, + or -. But there is an important relation which subsists in the...

...Likewise, a negative term can be transposed by changing its sign from negative to positive. Hence, any term may be transposed from one side of an equation to the other by changing its sign. If b = L - 70 in then b + 70 in = L This may also be explained in another way,...
