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:...
a. Define what it means for two logical statements to be equivalent b. If P and Q are two statements, show that the statement ( P) л (PvQ) is equivalent to the statement Q^ P c. Write the converse and the contrapositive of the statement "If you earn an A in Math 52, then you understand modular arithmetic and you understand equivalence relations." Which of these d. Write the negation of the following statement in a way that changes the...
50. What is wrong with this "proof? "Theorem For every positive integer n = (n + /2. Basis Step: The formula is true for n = 1. Inductive Step: Suppose that +Y/2. Then -(+972 +*+- +*+1)/2 + + + /- + 1). By the inductive hypothesis, we have + /2-[(++P/2, completing the + inductive step.
What is wrong with the following proof that every positive integer equals the nex larger positive integer? "Proof," Let P(n) be the proposition that n = n + 1, Assume that P(k) is true, so that k = k + 1 . Add 1 to both sides of this equation to obtain k + 1-k + 2 . Since this is the statement P(k 1), It follows that P(n) is true for all positive integers n.
8. Define (n) to be the number of positive integers less than n and n. That is, (n) = {x e Z; 1 < x< n and gcd(x, n) = 1}|. Notice that U (n) |= ¢(n). For example U( 10) = {1, 3,7, 9} and therefore (10)= 4. It is well known that (n) is multiplicative. That is, if m, n are (mn) (m)¢(n). In general, (p") p" -p Also it's well known that there are relatively prime, then...

2. Let n be a positive integer. Denote the number of positive integers less than n and rela- tively prime to n by p(n). Let a, b be positive integers such that ged(a,n) god(b,n)-1 Consider the set s, = {(a), (ba), (ba), ) (see Prollern 1). Let s-A]. Show that slp(n). 1. Let a, b, c, and n be positive integers such that gcd(a, n) = gcd(b, n) = gcd(c, n) = 1 If...
In the following problem, we will work through a proof of an
important theorem of arithmetic. Your job will be to read the proof
carefully and answer some questions about the argument. Theorem
(The Division Algorithm). For any integer n ≥ 0, and for any
positive integer m, there exist integers d and r such that n = dm +
r and 0 ≤ r < m. Proof: (By strong induction on the variable n.)
Let m be an arbitrary...
3. Suppose that the domain for x consists of all English text. P(x):“x is a clear explanation,” Q(x): “x is satisfactory,” and R(x):“x is an excuse,” Express each of these statements using quantifiers, logical connectives, and P (x), Q(x),and R(x). a) Some clear explanations are satisfactory b) All excuses are unsatisfactory c) Some excuses are not clear explanations. d) Does (c) follow from (a) and (b)? 4. Prove that if you pick four utensils from a drawer containing just spoons,...
(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...
