Excerpt from Algebra for Beginners
This work has been prepared expressly for beginners, and in response to a call for an Algebra for the higher classes in Grammar Schools.
It is taken for granted that the pupil is familiar with the principles of ordinary Arithmetic.
Few rules and definitions are given; the use of algebraic language is illustrated by numerous exercises; and the elementary principles of Algebra are made clear by the introduction of easy problems.
In order to awaken the interest of the pupil, the Equation, its reduction, and numerous problems are introduced at the very beginning of the book.
The examples given are carefully graded from the very simple to the more difficult. A considerable part of them have been tested by teachers of the grade for which they are designed. After the earlier problems, care has been taken to introduce for the most part such as require algebraic principles in their solution rather than those that can be more easily and naturally solved without the aid of Algebra. There is nothing better for training the intellectual powers than putting into algebraic language the conditions of a mathematical problem.
