Boole`s Algebra Isn`t Boolean Algebra (Article Review)
... The paper begins with some insightful observations on the state of algebra in Boole’s day as compared with later developments. Noting that Boolean algebra is of much later vintage than Boole’s work, the paper goes on to the stronger suggestion that the underlying ideas for Boole’s work are not those ...

... of the lengths of the line segments is the ratio of integers, a rational number. Two line segments are incommensurable if there is no unit, no matter how small, with which both segments can have integral measures. Therefore, the ratio of the lengths is not a rational number, that is, the ratio is an ...

... starting height of 520 feet with an initial upward velocity of 72 ft./s. How long will it take the star to reach its maximum height? How far above the group will it be? The equation h = -16t2 + 72t + 520 gives the star’s height h in feet at time t in seconds. Since the coefficient of t2 is negative, ...
