Show that the equation a2 – 1 = 0, namely (a – 1) · (a + 1) = 0 has only two solutions mod p. Please show the proof or correctness of your analysis.
Please show that in any monoid (semigroup with neutral element e) if some element a has inverse a^-1, this inverse is unique. This means no element can have more than one inverse. [Hint: Start from writing the definition of the inverse for element a. Consider an element a which has two inverses (a1)^-1 and (a2)^-1. Then think about the value of (a1)^-1a(a2)^-1]. Comment: This is about any monoid which has inverses for some elements, but not necessarily for all elements....
3 (Due 8/7) Prove that every element of a group has a unique inverse. (Due 8/7) Let (G, *) be a group and let a be an element of G with inverse d'. Prove that the function f(x) = a*r*d' is a permutation of G.
Theorem 7.5 Let G be a group. (1) G has a unique identity element (2) Cancellation Laws. For all a, b,ce G, if ab ac, then b-c. For all a, b,c E G, if ba-ca, then (3) Each element of G has a unique inverse: For each a E G, there exists a unique element d e G such that ad-e and da e . Prove that each element of a finite group G appears exactly once in each row...
Consider the following examples of a set S and a binary operation on S. Show with proof that the binary operation is indeed a binary operation, whether the binary operation has an identity, whether each element has an inverse, and whether the binary operation is associative. Hence, determine whether the set S is a group under the given binary operation. (f) S quadratic residues in Z101 under multiplication modulo 101

13)) Let n E N, and let ā, x, y E Zn. Prove that if ā + x = ā + y, then x-y. 14. In this exercise, you will prove that the additive inverse of any element of Z, is unique. (In fact, this is true not only in Z, but in any ring, as we prove in the Appendix on the Student Companion Website.) Let n E N, and let aE Z...
8. Let p be an odd prime. In this exercise, we prove a famous result that characterizes precisely when -1 has a sqare root 1 mod 4. (You will need Wilson's Theorem for one (mod p). Prove: a 2--1 mod p has a solution if and only if p dircction of the proof.)

A monopolist's inverse demand function is P= 150 – 3Q. The company produces output at two facilities; the marginal cost of producing at facility 1 is MC1(Q1) = 6Q1, and the marginal cost of producing at facility 2 is MC2(Q2) = 2Q2: a. Provide the equation for the monopolist's marginal revenue function. (Hint: Recall that Q1 + Q2 = Q.) MR(Q) = 150-C6 Q4-06 Q2 b. Determine the profit-maximizing level of output for each facility. Output for...
