If two temperaments of the same rank are such that neither dominants the other, we may subtract one Cangwu badness polynomial from the other and find the positive root of the result. This gives a value of the parameter 'x' at which the two temperaments are rated equal in badness, which can be applied to rate other temperaments by badness. For example, if 5-limit father and helmholtz are made equally bad, then meantone, augmented, dicot, porcupine, srutal, diminished, magic, hanson and mavila, in that order, rate as better. | If two temperaments of the same rank are such that neither dominants the other, we may subtract one Cangwu badness polynomial from the other and find the positive root of the result.
