(a) Let n be any positive integer. Briefly explain (no formal proofs) why n > 1 ≡ ¬(n = 1). (b) Recall that a positive integer p is prime iff there do not exist a positive integers n and m, both greater than 1, such that p = nm. (I.e., Prime(p) means ¬∃n ∃m (n > 1 ∧ m > 1 ∧ p = nm).) Give a formal proof of the following: for any prime p, any positive integers n...

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. Let a and b be integers...

1. [10 marks] Modular Arithmetic. The Quotient-Remainder theorem states that given any integer n and a positive integer d there exist unique integers q and r such that n = dq + r and 0 r< d. We define the mod function as follows: (, r r>n = qd+r^0<r< d) Vn,d E Z d0 Z n mod d That is, n mod d is the remainder of n after division by d (a) Translate the following statement into predicate logic:...

Problem 1. Let a be any positive integer relatively prime to 10 (so gcd(a, 10) 1)....
Problem 1. Let a be any positive integer relatively prime to 10 (so gcd(a, 10) 1). Show there are an infinite number of multiples of a whose decimal expansion is all 9s. For example, 13 we have 13 · 76923 = 999999 and 13 · 76923076923 = 999999999999. (Hint: a number whose decimal expansion is all 9s is of the form 109 – 1). Do you notice any connection here to the decimal expansion of the fraction 1/a? for a...

Bonus question: 4 bonus marks] A positive integer r is called powerful if for all prime numbers P, p implies p | r. A positive integer z is called a perfect power if there exist a prime number p and a natural number n such that p". An Achilles number is one that is powerful but is not a perfect power. For example, 72 is an Achilles number. Prove that if a and b...
