and writing therein in place of (a, b, c, e), the values (a, 2b, 3c, — 27e), the second
factor divided by 729 gives the foregoing expression for TJ, belonging to the form
(a, 2b, Sc, 0, -27e#t, l) 4 .
11. Taking (a, b, c, e) as coordinates, and omitting common numerical factors, the
first derived functions of U are

— 48abce + 64b 3 e — 16bc s ,

2a 3 e + 6a 2 c 2 — 24aZ> 2 c + 166 4 ,
and the second derived functions are
