For any variables x and y, x ∊ y and x = y are formulas (such formulas are called atomic).
The optical accuracy of such formulas cannot be checked until someone can get millions of light-years out into space and take a look around.
In the best poems such formulas, far from being tedious, give a strong impression of the richness of the cultural fund from which poets could draw.
Three years ago, when a similar study was done, only about 40percentt had such formulas, according to Lee Hecht Harrison, a career services company in Woodcliff Lake, N.J., that conducted both studies.
Most nonstoichiometric compounds have compositions that are close to those of stoichiometric compounds and can be expressed by such formulas as WO3-x, Co1-xO, or Zn1+xO, in which x is a positive quantity much smaller than 1.
Such formulas include so-called trend factors that increase reimbursements to hospitals over time, which are politically difficult for governors to negotiate out of law after they are approved.
But private colleges like Rice have long shunned such formulas as too mechanical and impersonal and have instead adopted a more nuanced approach that colleges elsewhere see as a blueprint, should they face a prohibition like that imposed by the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, whose jurisdiction is Texas, Mississippi and Louisiana.
As long as the British raj remained in control, such formulas and schemes appeared to suffice, for the British army could always be hurled into the communal fray at the brink of extreme danger, and the army had as yet remained apolitical and since its post-mutiny reorganization—untainted by communal religious passions.
But in light of the so-called holistic side of highly selective admissions — in which "softer" variables like essays and interviews and teacher recommendations are weighed alongside scores and grades — admissions professionals strongly caution applicants and their families against using such formulas to handicap their chances of, say, getting into Princeton.
As noted above, we avoid such formulas.
