Consider numbers of the form a + b*sqrt(c), where a,b, and c are all rational numbers. express sqrt(a + b*sqrt(c)) in the same form, (i.e. as d + e*sqrt(c)). For which values of c can this be done?

1. a) Express z = −i−sqrt(3) in the form r cis θ, where θ= Argz, and then use de Moivre’s theorem to find the two square roots of −4i. b) Consider: i) p(z)=iz^2+z^3+2iz−2z^2+2z. Given that z=2−2i is a zero of this polynomial, find all of its zeros. ii) p(z)=z^3−2z^2+9z−18. Factorise into linear factors.

An ‘efficient’ market is defined as a market where there are large numbers of rational, profit ‘maximisers’ actively competing, with each trying to predict future market values of individual securities, and where important current information is almost freely available to all participants. In an efficient market, competition among the many intelligent participants leads to a situation where, at any point in time, actual prices of individual securities already reflect the effects of information based both on events that have already...

Suppose you have two numbers x, y ∈ Q (that is, x and y are rational numbers). a) Use the formal definition of a rational number to express each of x and y as the ratio of two integers. Remember, x and y could be different numbers! (b) Use your results from (a) to show that xy must also be a rational number. Carefully justify your answer, showing how it satisfies the formal definition of a rational number. (2) Suppose...
