3\equiv3\mod{20}
3^2\equiv9\mod{20}
3^3\equiv27\equiv7\mod{20}
3^4\equiv3\cdot3^3\equiv3\cdot7\equiv21\equiv1\mod{20}

7\equiv7\mod{20}
7^2\equiv49\equiv9\mod{20}
7^3\equiv7\cdot7^2\equiv63\equiv3\mod{20}
7^4\equiv7\cdot7^3\equiv21\equiv1\mod{20}

9\equiv9\mod{20}
9^2\equiv3^4\equiv1\mod{20}

11\equiv11\mod{20}
11^2\equiv121\equiv1\mod{20}

13\equiv-7\equiv13\mod{20}
13^2\equiv169\equiv9\mod{20}
13^3\equiv13\cdot13^2\equiv(-7)9\equiv-63\equiv-3\mod{20}
13^4\equiv13\cdot13^3\equiv(-7)(-3)\equiv21\equiv1\mod{20}

17\equiv-3\equiv17\mod{20}
17^2\equiv(-3)^2\equiv9\mod{20}
17^3\equiv(-3)^3\equiv-27\equiv3\mod{20}
17^4\equiv(-3)^4\equiv81\equiv1\mod{20}

19\equiv-1\equiv19\mod{20}
19^2\equiv19(-1)\equiv-19\equiv1\mod{20}

Generally speaking, a number x coprime to n will be a primitive root of n if we have x^n\equiv x\mod{n}, or x^{n-1}\equiv1\mod{n}. In other words, if x is of order n-1 modulo n, then x is a primitive root of n.

Since none of these numbers has order 19, it follows that 20 does not have any primitive roots.

vodomira [7]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

so this is (base times hight)

(bH)

42=7x

you didvide 7 from both sides

42 divided by 7 is 6

so basically its 6

because that would be your base thats what you are missing

then its just baseically (BH) (7 times 6)= 42

if this is wrong im so sorry I just learned this good luck

Find the value of X <br><br>Anyone think they can help me with this?
ratelena [41]

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The segment that is x units long is the midsegment of the largest triangle. The midsegment is half as long as the line parallel to the midsegment. It is half as long as the 30 unit long segment.

Note how the vertical sides (marked with the double tickmarks) are congruent to one another. The smaller pieces are both the same length, so they combine to something twice as big. Go in reverse: one segment with a pair of double tickmarks is exactly half as long as the entire vertical side. The same can be said about the horizontal sides as well.
