Acnode :: Acnode (n.) An isolated point not upon a curve, but whose coordinates satisfy the equation of the curve so that it is considered as belonging to the curve..

Member :: Member (n.) Either of the two parts of an algebraic equation, connected by the sign of equality..

Numerical :: Numerical (n.) Belonging to number; denoting number; consisting in numbers; expressed by numbers, and not letters; as, numerical characters; a numerical equation; a numerical statement..

Plexus :: Plexus (n.) The system of equations required for the complete expression of the relations which exist between a set of quantities.

Transpose :: Transpose (v. t.) To bring, as any term of an equation, from one side over to the other, without destroying the equation; thus, if a + b = c, and we make a = c - b, then b is said to be transposed..

Quadric :: Quadric (n.) A surface whose equation in three variables is of the second degree. Spheres, spheroids, ellipsoids, paraboloids, hyperboloids, also cones and cylinders with circular bases, are quadrics..

Resolvent :: Resolvent (n.) An equation upon whose solution the solution of a given pproblem depends.

Inequation :: Inequation (n.) An inequality.

Eliminant :: Eliminant (n.) The result of eliminating n variables between n homogeneous equations of any degree; -- called also resultant.

Auxiliary :: Auxiliary (sing.) A quantity introduced for the purpose of simplifying or facilitating some operation, as in equations or trigonometrical formulae..

Solution :: Solution (n.) The act of solving, or the state of being solved; the disentanglement of any intricate problem or difficult question; explanation; clearing up; -- used especially in mathematics, either of the process of solving an equation or problem, or the result of the process..

Affected :: Affected (p. p. & a.) Made up of terms involving different powers of the unknown quantity; adfected; as, an affected equation..

Adequation :: Adequation (n.) The act of equalizing; act or result of making adequate; an equivalent.

Equation :: Equation (n.) A quantity to be applied in computing the mean place or other element of a celestial body; that is, any one of the several quantities to be added to, or taken from, its position as calculated on the hypothesis of a mean uniform motion, in order to find its true position as resulting from its actual and unequal motion..

Quartic :: Quartic (n.) A curve or surface whose equation is of the fourth degree in the variables.

Analysis :: Analysis (n.) The resolving of problems by reducing the conditions that are in them to equations.

Reduction :: Reduction (n.) The act or process of reducing. See Reduce, v. t., 6. and To reduce an equation, To reduce an expression, under Reduce, v. t..

Evection :: Evection () An inequality of the moon's motion is its orbit to the attraction of the sun, by which the equation of the center is diminished at the syzygies, and increased at the quadratures by about 1¡ 20'..

Elimination :: Elimination (n.) Act of causing a quantity to disappear from an equation; especially, in the operation of deducing from several equations containing several unknown quantities a less number of equations containing a less number of unknown quantities..
