8. (a) Prove that if p and q are prime numbers then p2 + pq is not a perfect square. (b) Prove that, for every integer a and every prime p, if p | a then ged(a,pb) = god(a,b). Is the converse of this statement true? Explain why or why not. (c) Prove that, for every non-zero integer n, the sum of all (positive or negative) divisors of n is equal to zero. 9.

Part 15A and 15B
(15) Let n E Z+,and let d be a positive divisor of n. Theorem 23.7 tells us that Zn contains exactly one subgroup of order d, but not how many elements Z has of order d. We will determine that number in this exercise. (a) Determine the number of elements in Z12 of each order d. Fill in the table below to compare your answers to the number of integers between 1 and d that are...
Recall the formula for a proportion confidence interval is p^?zp^(1?p^)n?????????<p<p^+zp^(1?p^)n????????? Thus, the margin of error is E=zp^(1?p^)n????????? . NOTE: the margin of error can be recovered after constructing a confidence interval on the calculator using algebra (that is, subtracting p^ from the right endpoint.) In a simple random sample of size 59, taken from a population, 20 of the individuals met a specified criteria. a) What is the margin of error for a 90% confidence interval for p, the population...
Please prove the 3 theorems,
thank you!
7.6 Theorem. Let p be a prime. Then half the numbers not congruent to 0 modulo p in any complete nesidue system modulo p are quadratic residuess modulo p and half are quadratic non-residues modulo p. From clementary school days, we have known that the product of a pos- itive number and a positive number is positive, a positive times a negative is negative, and the product of two negative numbers is positive....
Please show all steps clearly.

State and de- duce the class equation using the decomposition of a group in conjugacy classes (b) Let G be a finite group and p a prime number such that p divides G. Prove that there is a subgroup H of G such that |H p. (c) Let p be a prime number. Prove that any positive integer n, any group...
Let p be an odd prime and a an integer with p not dividing a. Show that a(p-1)/2 is congruent to 1 mod p if and only if a is a square modulo p and -1 otherwise. (hint: think generators)
