Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) We have 15! as the product of 1 to 15 natural numbers. Since 17 is prime there will be no factor common to these
By actual division we find
15! (mod 17) =16
From this we deduce
even 16! mod 17 = 16 = -1
According to Wilson theorem
(17-1)! = -1 mod 17
Thus verified 17 is prime
Hence 15! (mod 17) =-1=16
-----------------------
b) 2(26!) is divided by 29
Since 29 is prime
(29-1)! = -1 mod 29
28! = -1 mod 29 = 28
When divided this gives 25 as remainder
This is tricky because we are given the interest rate for the year but the problem is figureing the interest for 6 months or 1/2 year. We will have to double the difference before solving for the yearly interest.
572.60 - 560.00 = 12.60 interest added for 6 months x 2 = 25.20 for 12 months
(This problem assumes the interest will stay the same the next 6 months)
We need to find what percent 25.20 is to our original balance.
25.20/560 = x / 100
2520 = 560x
x = 4.5 percent interest
Check .045 x 560.00 = 25.20 interest in one year (or 12.60 in 6 months)
You have a 30 out of 37% chance so i would say 53 cents
i hope this helps at least a little
good luck!
