Use the Euclidean algorithm to express 1 as a linear combination of
and
.
a.
because
77 = 1*52 + 25
52 = 2*25 + 2
25 = 12*2 + 1
so we can write
1 = 25 - 12*2 = 25*25 - 12*52 = (77 - 52)(77 - 52) - 12*52 = 77^2 - 2*52*77 + 52^2 - 12*52
Taken modulo 77 leaves us with

b. First,
, so really we're looking for the inverse of 25 mod 52. We've basically done the work in part (a) already:
1 = 25*25 - 12*52
Taken modulo 52, we're left with

c. The EA gives
71 = 1*53 + 18
53 = 2*18 + 17
18 = 1*17 + 1
so we get
1 = 18 - 17 = 3*18 - 53 = 3*71 - 4*53
so that taken module 71, we find

d. Same process as with (b). First we have
, and we've already shown that
1 = 3*18 - 53
which means, taken modulo 53, that

Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
When 3 is squared, it becomes 9. That means that both A and B are incorrect.
The powers on u and v are doubled not added to become u^6 and v^8 so that makes C the only possible answer.
a: draw a rectangle an label one side 80 and the other 115
b: 1560 Yards
Answer:
137.5 Miles
Step-by-step explanation:
2 = 50 Right? So if you were to divide 50 by 2, you would get 1 = 25. All you would have to do from there would be to multiply 25 times 5.5 to get 137.5.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You take the starting year of 1990 and subtract it from 1999 to get the year span of 9,
You then take the amount per year the population goes up by which is 300, so 300 multiplied by 9 is 2,700
You add 2,700 to 21,152 to get B-23,852
