  • A Second Course in Algebra

    Webster Wells

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, June 5, 2015)
    Excerpt from A Second Course in AlgebraIn the preparation of this text the author acknowledges joint authorship with Robert L.Short, Technical High School, Cleveland.A knowledge of the more elementary parts of algebra is presupposed. For this reason some definitions and rules for operation are assumed as already known to the pupil.Attention is called to the generalization and bringing together of related topics. Chapter III is an example of this feature. Here all forms of the exponent are treated. This gives opportunity to regard the logarithm as a decimal exponent and to make the logarithmic operation laws intelligible. The introduction of all linear equations and inequalities in Chapter II shows their solution directly dependent upon the four fundamental operations. It is thought that the introduction of the idea of functionality and of algebraic forms taken directly from the calculus will be found helpful to those who expect to pursue the study of mathematics further.The treatment of factoring is thorough and so taken up that Synthetic Division becomes the natural method for factoring many higher forms and for solving equations of higher degree.It is hoped that the treatment of variation as a proportion will remove the reluctance with which most pupils approach that subject in connection with their work in science.In scope this text is sufficient preparation for most courses in mathematics which require thorough knowledge of the operations of algebra.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

    Paperback (Leopold Classic Library, March 25, 2016)
    Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, within the book we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free.

    This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1913 Excerpt: ...his type is most easily understood if the quadratic is solved by factoring. This example becomes (2 a;--3) (2 x--3) = 0. The roots are then i and i-It is customary to say that the roots are equal. Determine hy inspection the character of the roots of: EXERCISE 61 3. 6 6. ft... 6 (n factors)..©"-£. Involution is the name given to the process of finding a power of a number. (Compare with § 3.) EXERCISE 62 Find the results of the indicated operations in the following examples, using the five laws above; the literal exponents denote positive integers. ". ($)'.. ©-m (£)' (-?)'-« (?)--(£)' « (S)'-116. Only cube and square roots have been considered in the preceding chapters. More general roots occur in mathematics. 117. Just as-/x indicates the cube root of x (§ 3), so-tyx indicates the nth root of x. n is called the Index of the root. The nth root of x is the number whose nth power equals x; thatis, (-v)-=ar. Thus, v3 = Xs, since (a?)4 = xi2. y/xTM = x1, since (a)6 = xw. V-a;i4(/2i =--»y, since (--xy3y =-xuyil. The number under the radical sign is called the Radicand. Rule.--To find the nth root of a perfect nth power, divide the exponent of each factor of the radicand by n. Every number has n nth roots. Unless something is said to the contrary, the principal root is denoted by the symbol V. If n is even, this root is the positive root; if n is odd and the radicand is negative, this root is negative. Evolution is the name given to the process of finding the root of a number. (Compare with § 3.) Historical Note. A symbol for extracting a root did not appear until the fifteenth century. In Italian mathematics, the first letter of the word Radix, meaning the root, was used to indicate the square root:...
