When four quantities are proportional, the proportion is h a+c expressed by points, in the same manner as in the Rule of Pro. STATEMENT IN WORDS.—The sum of a and b divided by h, is portion in arithmetic. Thus a : b::c:d signifies that a has to equal to the product of a, b, and c, diminished by 6 times m, b, the ame ratio which c has to d. And ab :cd :: a+m : b+n, and increased by the quotient of a divided by the sum of a andĆ. means that ab is to cd, as the sum of a and m, to the sum of EXERCISE 2. b and n. 28. Algebraic quantities are said to be like, when they are Write out the following algebraical expressions in words :expressed by the same letters, and are of the same power ; and 1. ab + = d * a + b +0 X + y unlike, when the letters are different, or when the same letter is 6 + b raised to different powers. Thus ab, 3ab, -ab, and —bab, are C - 60 2. a + 7 (h + x) (+ h) (b - c). like quantities, because the letters are the same in each, although 2a + 4 the signs and co-efficients are different. But 3a, 34, 3br, are d-4 3. a-b:ac :: :3 x (h + d + y). unlike quantities, because the letters are unlike, although there is no difference in the signs and co-efficients. So x, xx, and cxx, a —h d + ab ba x (d. + h) cd are unlike quantities, because they are different powers of the 3 + (6 — c) 2m h + d m samo quantity. (They are usually written 2, 22, and wo.) And 35. At the close of an algebraic process it is often necessary universally if any quantity is repeated as a factor a number of to restore the numbers for which letters have been substituted times in one instance, and a different number of times in another, at the beginning. In doing this the sign * must not be omitted the products will be unlike quantities; thus, a, coce, and c, are between the numbers, as it generally is between factors expressed unlike quantities. But if the same quantity is repeated as a by letters. Thus if a stands for 3, and b for 4, the product ab factor the same number of times in each instance, the products is not 34, but 3 ~ 4, i.e., 12. are like quantities.

Thus 36 is a measure of 15b; and 7 is a measure of 35. EXERCISE 3. 31.

Thus the value of 3+4 is 7; that posing a = 3; 6 = 4; c= 2; d = 6; m = 8; and n=10: 16 of 3x4 is 12; and that of is 2. ad 1. • 32.

Most of the adjectives of this class add the forms of comparison to the stem by means of the connecting vowel o or w. The English adverb of comparison than is represented by a The connecting vowel is o when a long syllable precedes; if a (Latin quam); thus, the son is wiser than the father, is in Greek, short syllable precedes, the connecting vowel is w. A short | ο νιος σοφώτερος εστιν η και πατηρ. Another form of comparison syllable is a syllable the vowel of which is short ; a long syllable drops the n, and instead, as in the previous instance, of having is a syllable the vowel of which is long. Diphthongs are long, the same case after the n, than, as before it, puts the second and a vowel followed by two consonants, or one double consonant, noun in the genitive, as o υίος σοφώτερος του πατρος εστιν. is long. A long vowel or a diphthong is said to be long by nature; EXERCISE 53.-GREEK-ENGLISH. a vowel made long by standing before two consonants, or one double consonant, is said to be long by position. The rule is 1. Αριστειδης πτωχιστατος ην, αλλα δικαιοτατος. 2. Ο exemplified in these words : Κυκλωπες βιαιοτατοι ησαν. 3. Καλλιας πλουσιωτατος ην Αθηναιων. 4. Ουδεν σιωπης εστι χρησιμώτερον. 5.

From these examples, it will be seen that the difference SUBTRACTION. between a positive and a negative quantity may be greater than 56. SUBTRACTION is the finding of the difference between cny two either of the two quantities. In a thermometer, the difference quantities or collections of quantities. between 28 degrees above zero, and 16 degrees below, is 44 EXAMPLES.—(1.) Charles has 5a pears, and James has 3a degrees. The difference between gaining 1,000 pounds in trade, pears. How many more pears has Charles than James ? and losing 500 pounds, is equivalent to 1,500 pounds. In this example, we wish to take 3a pears from 5a pears. 62. Proof.-Subtraction may be proved, as in arithmetic, by But subtraction is denoted by the sign - Hence the expres- adding the remainder to the subtrahend. The sum ought to be sion 5a 3a pears represents the answer.

Now, Take 3h 9bx 5ly - 6ah 5nd by if you take £50 from the positive or debtor side, it will have the same effect on the balance, as if you added £50 to the negative Answer 2h + 12b - 4hy + 5ah - und . - 6by or credit side; and on the other hand, if you take £50 from (5.)

In like manner, if, in the expression 12a — 50, you take 10abm - 7ey +3+ 5ad + 5ax 86 + 10ah 3a from 12a, it will have the same effect on the expression, as 63. When there are several terms alike in the subtrahend, if you added 3a to 5a, and retained the negative sign in the sum; thus, 9a 5a is the same as 12a 8a. Again, if in the expres they may be united and their sum be used. Thus, sion 12a -5a, you take 3a from 5a, and retain the negative sign EXAMPLES.-(1.) From ab, subtract 3am + am + 7am in the difference, it will have the same effect on the expression, + 2am + bam. Here ab Зап - am as if you added 3a to 12a ; thus, 12a - 2a, is the same as - 7am - 2am -- 6am = ab-19am. 150.--- 50. Answer. (2.) Fromy, subtract a tata + a. 4a. 59.

From ad + 3dc — bæ, subtract 3ad + 7bx dc + ad. Answer. 4dc - 8bx - 3ad. 60. Upon this principle is founded the following 64. The sign placed before the marks of parenthesis which GENERAL RULE FOR SUBTRACTION. include a number of quantities, requires that, when these marks Change the signs of all the quantities to be subtracted, i.e., of are removed, the signs of all the qnantities thus included should the subtrahend, or suppose them to be changed from + to —, and be changed. Thus a - (b − c + d) signifies that the quantities from -- to +; then if the quantities are ALIKE, unite the terms b-c and + d are to be subtracted from a.
