Take the fluent of each term, as if t

ogarithms, in the above forms, are the hyperwhich are found by multiplying the common Ny 2.302585092994. And the arcs, whose sine, &c, are mentioned, have the radius 1, and are e common tables of sines, tangents and secants. numbers m, n, &c, are to be some real quantities, as fail when m = 0, or n= 0, &c.

the foregoing Table of Forms of Fluxions and Fluents. using the foregoing table, it is to be observed, that lumn serves only to show the number of the form; ond column are the several forms of fluxions, which derent kinds or classes; and in the third or last ce the corresponding fluents.

ethod of using the table, is this. Having any given, to find its fluent: First, Compare the given With the several forms of fluxions in the second coChe table, till one of the forms be found that agrees done by comparing the terms of the given parts of the tabular fluxion, namely,

e one, with that of the other; and

the

e exponents of the variable quantities of each, both within and without the vinculum; all which, being found to agree or correspond, will give the particular values of the general quantities in the tabular form: then substitute these particular values in the general or tabular form of the fluent, and the result will be the particular fluent of the given fluxion; after it is multiplied by any co-efficient the proposed fluxion may have.

EXAMPLES.

EXAM. 1. To find the fluent of the fluxion 3.x3. This is found to agree with the first form. And, by comparing the fluxions, it appears that x=x, and n - 1 = {}, or n= ; which being substituted in the tabular fluent, or 1r", gives, after multiplying by 3 the co-efficient, 3 × fr3, or 3, for the fluent sought.

This fluxion, it appears, belongs to the 2d tabular form: for ac, and-"= r3, and n = 3 under the vinculum, 1 = 1, or m =, and the exponent n-1 of x3-1 without the vinculum, by using 3 for n, is n

- 12, which agrees with r2 in the given fluxion: so that all the parts of the form are found to correspond. Then, substituting these values into the general fluent, – ma (a — x1)",

This is found to agree with the 8th form; where ±x"= + x3 in the denominator, or n= 3; and the numerator then becomes r2, which agrees with the numerator in the given fluxion; also a = 1. Hence then, by substituting in the general or tabular fluent, log. of a + x", it becomes log. 1 + x3.
