Prove that if a is a natural number, then there exist two unequal natural numbers k and l for which ak−al is divisible by 10.

EastWind [94]

Assume a is not divisible by 10. (otherwise the problem is trivial).
<span>Define R(m) to be the remainder of a^m when divided by 10. </span>
<span>R can take on one of 9 possible values, namely, 1,2,...,9. </span>
<span>Now, consider R(1),R(2),......R(10). At least 2 of them must have the sames value (by the Pigeonhole Principle), say R(i) = R(j) ( j>i ) </span>
<span>Then, a^j - a^i is divisible by 10.</span>

Given that ∠CEA is a right angle and bisects ∠CEA, which statement must be true?

loris [4]

Given that ∠CEA is a right angle which has been bisected by BE, then:
∠CEB=∠BEA
thus each angle will be complementary to each other, hence the size will be:
90/2=45°
hence the correct statement.
<span>m∠CEB = 45°</span>

Write in slope-intercept form an equation of the line that passes through the points (−1,12) and (1,2).

zzz [600]

Answer:

$y=-5x+7$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

we have

the points (−1,12) and (1,2)

substitute

$m=\frac{2-12}{1+1}$

$m=\frac{-10}{2}$

$m=-5$

step 2

we know that

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equl to

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

we have

$m=-5$

$point\ (1,2)$

substitute in the linear equation and solve for b

$2=-5(1)+b$

$b=2+5=7$

therefore

$y=-5x+7$
