Recall from class that we defined the set of integers by defining the equivalence relation ∼ on N × N by (a, b) ∼ (c, d) =⇒ a + d = c + b, and then took the integers to be equivalence classes for this relation, i.e. Z = [(a, b)]∼ | (a, b) ∈ N × N . We then proceeded to define 0Z = [(0, 0)]∼, 1Z = [(1, 0)]∼, − [(a, b)]∼ = [(b, a)]∼, [(a, b)]∼...

Recall that we have proven that we have the relation “ mod n” on the integers where a ≡ b mod n if n | b − a . We call the set of equivalence classes: Z/nZ. Show that addition and multiplication are well-defined on the equivalence classes by showing (a) that you have a definition of addition and multiplication for pairs which matches your intuition and (b) that if you choose different representatives when you add or multiply, the...

Determine if each of the following recursive definition is a valid recursive definition of a function f from a set of non-negative integers. If f is well defined, find a formula for f(n) where n is non-negative and prove that your formula is valid. f(0) = 1, f(n) = -f(n-1) + 1 for n ≥ 1 f(0) = 0, f(1) = 1, f(n) = 2f(n-1) +1 for n ≥ 1 f(0) =0, f(n) = 2f(n-1) + 2 for n ≥...

Please note n's are superscripted. (a) Use mathematical induction to prove that 2n+1 + 3n+1 ≤ 2 · 4n for all integers n ≥ 3. (b) Let f(n) = 2n+1 + 3n+1 and g(n) = 4n. Using the inequality from part (a) prove that f(n) = O(g(n)). You need to give a rigorous proof derived directly from the definition of O-notation, without using any theorems from class. (First, give a complete statement of the definition. Next, show how f(n) =...

Prove that there exist n consecutive positive integers each having a (nontrivial) square factor. How would you then modify your proof so that each of these integers instead has a cube factor (or more generally, a kth power factor where k ≥ 2)? This is a number theory question. Please show all steps and make clear notes about what is happening for a clear understanding. Please write clearly or do in latex. Thank you

Consider the function f(x)=arctan((x+5)/(x+4)) What is the slope of the tangent line at the inflection point? The inflection point I got was: (-9/2, -pi/4). If you could provide a sketch of the graph as well I'll give a thumbs up, thank you!
