Answer:

Check the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)Let p be the smallest prime divisor of (n!)^2+1 if p<=n then p|n! Hence p can not divide (n!)^2+1. Hence p>n

(b) (n!)^2=-1 mod p now by format theorem (n!)^(p-1)= 1 mod p ( as p doesn't divide (n!)^2)

Hence (-1)^(p-1)/2= 1 mod p hence [ as p-1/2 is an integer] and hence( p-1)/2 is even number hence p is of the form 4k+1

(C) now let p be the largest prime of the form 4k+1 consider x= (p!)^2+1 . Let q be the smallest prime dividing x . By the previous exercises q> p and q is also of the form 4k+1 hence contradiction. Hence P_1 is infinite

How much water should be added to a 15 gallon solution of 35% hydrogen peroxide to create an 8% solution? how many gallons would
katrin2010 [14]

15 gallons of 35% peroxide solution contains 0.35 × 15 = 5.25 gallons of hydrogen peroxide. The rest of the volume is made up of 15 - 5.25 = 9.75 gallons of water.

If we add x gallons of water to the solution, the amount of hyrdrogen peroxide in the solution stays the same, but the volume of water increases to 9.75+x gallons, and the total volume increases to 15+x gallons.

To get a concentration of 8% in this diluted solution, we add x gallons of water such that

\dfrac{5.25}{15+x} = 0.08

Solve for x.

5.25 = 0.08 (15 + x)

5.25 = 1.2 + 0.08x

0.08x = 4.05

x = 50.625

To get the desired concentration, one must add 50.625 gallons of water, and one will end up with a total volume of 65.625 gallons of solution.

In Melanie's Styling Salon, the time to complete a simple haircut is normally distributed with a mean of 25 minutes and a standa
Triss [41]

Answer:

Longer than 27.7 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

\mu = 25, \sigma = 4

The slowest quarter of customers will require longer than how many minutes (to the nearest tenth) for a simple haircut?

Longer than the 100 - 25 = 75th percentile of times, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.75. So X when Z = 0.675. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

0.675 = \frac{X - 25}{4}

X - 25 = 4*0.675

X = 27.7

So

Longer than 27.7 minutes.
