The act or process of equating two or more things, or the state of those things being equal (that is, identical).
An assertion that two expressions are equal, expressed by writing the two expressions separated by an equal sign; from which one is to determine a particular quantity.
A small correction to observed values to remove the effects of systematic errors in an observation.
A taxonomic designation (such as of a subspecies) consisting of more than two terms.
A making equal; equal division; equality; equilibrium.
An expression of the condition of equality between two algebraic quantities or sets of quantities, the sign = being placed between them; as, a binomial equation; a quadratic equation; an algebraic equation; a transcendental equation; an exponential equation; a logarithmic equation; a differential equation, etc.
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.
An expression composed of two or more terms, connected by the signs plus or minus; as, a2 - 2ab + b2.
Containing many names or terms; multinominal; as, the polynomial theorem.
Consisting of two or more words; having names consisting of two or more words; as, a polynomial name; polynomial nomenclature.
