Thus , to involve a2 to the 3d power , we are to take a three times as a factor , which is a3 × a3 × a3 , or a2 + 2 + 2 , or ao , ( Art . 5 , ) that is , the 3d power of a3 is a with the exponent 2 × 3 . In general the nth power of am ...

In order to simplify , we resolve the binomial into two factors , thus ; ( a + b ) " = [ a ( 1 + 2 ) ] TM = a " ( 1 + 2- ) TM , ( Art . 11. ) If then we obtain the development of ( 1 + 2 ) * , we have only to multiply it by am to obtain ...

But when m is a positive integer , the series will terminate at the ( m + 1 ) th term , and all the succeeding terms will vanish , or become = 0 . For by examining formula ( 15 ) , it will be seen that the 2d term contains the factor m ...
