What is the multiplicative inverse of 5 in z11, z12, and z13? you can do a trial-and-error search using a calculator or a pc?

grin007 [14]

A multiplicative inverse of an integer a is an integer x such that the product ax is congruent to 1 with respect to the modulus m.

1. $Z_{11}=\{\overline{0},\overline{1},\overline{2},\overline{3},\overline{4},\overline{5},\overline{6},\overline{7},\overline{8},\overline{9},\overline{10}\}.$

Check:

$5\cdot 0=\overline{0};$
$5\cdot 1=\overline{5};$
$5\cdot 2=\overline{10};$
$5\cdot 3=15=\overline{4};$
$5\cdot 4=20=\overline{9};$
$5\cdot 5=25=\overline{3};$
$5\cdot 6=30=\overline{8};$
$5\cdot 7=35=\overline{2};$
$5\cdot 8=40=\overline{7};$
$5\cdot 9=45=\overline{1};$
$5\cdot 10=50=\overline{6}.$

The multiplicative inverse of 5 in $Z_{11}$ is 9.

2. $Z_{12}=\{\overline{0},\overline{1},\overline{2},\overline{3},\overline{4},\overline{5},\overline{6},\overline{7},\overline{8},\overline{9},\overline{10},\overline{11}\}.$

Check:

$5\cdot 0=\overline{0};$
$5\cdot 1=\overline{5};$
$5\cdot 2=\overline{10};$
$5\cdot 3=15=\overline{3};$
$5\cdot 4=20=\overline{8};$
$5\cdot 5=25=\overline{1};$
$5\cdot 6=30=\overline{6};$
$5\cdot 7=35=\overline{11};$
$5\cdot 8=40=\overline{4};$
$5\cdot 9=45=\overline{9};$
$5\cdot 10=50=\overline{2};$
$5\cdot 11=55=\overline{7}.$

The multiplicative inverse of 5 in $Z_{12}$ is 5.

3. $Z_{13}=\{\overline{0},\overline{1},\overline{2},\overline{3},\overline{4},\overline{5},\overline{6},\overline{7},\overline{8},\overline{9},\overline{10},\overline{11},\overline{12}\}.$

Check:

$5\cdot 0=\overline{0};$
$5\cdot 1=\overline{5};$
$5\cdot 2=\overline{10};$
$5\cdot 3=15=\overline{2};$
$5\cdot 4=20=\overline{7};$
$5\cdot 5=25=\overline{12};$
$5\cdot 6=30=\overline{4};$
$5\cdot 7=35=\overline{9};$
$5\cdot 8=40=\overline{1};$
$5\cdot 9=45=\overline{6};$
$5\cdot 10=50=\overline{11};$
$5\cdot 11=55=\overline{3};$
$5\cdot 12=60=\overline{8}.$

The multiplicative inverse of 5 in $Z_{13}$ is 8.

On a certain hot summer day, 481 people used the public swimming pool. The daily prices are 1.25 for children and 2.25 for adult

spayn [35]

Answer:the number of children that swam in the public pool that day is 222

the number of adult that swam in the public pool that day is 259

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of children that swam in the public pool that day.

Let y represent the number of adult that swam in the public pool that day.

On a certain hot summer day, 481 people used the public swimming pool. This means that

x + y = 481

The daily prices are 1.25 for children and 2.25 for adults. The receipts for admission totaled to 86.25. This means that

1.25x + 2.25y = 860.25 - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 481 - y into equation 1, it becomes

1.25(481 - y) + 2.25y = 860.25

601.25 - 1.25y + 2.25y = 860.25

- 1.25y + 2.25y = 860.25 - 601.25

y = 259

Substituting y = 259 into x = 481 - y, it becomes

x = 481 - 259

x = 222

K(a)= 4a-4, Find k(-9)

FromTheMoon [43]

We simply replace a with -9

k(-9) = 4 * -9 - 4

k(-9) = -40
