(a). What is the highest power of 15 that divides
1000
Be careful! 15 is NOT prime.
(b). Given that k = 3 (mod 4), determine the least nonnegative residue of 9k³33 +22 (mod 4).
(c). Using properties of congruences show that 7 divides 32n+1 +2"+2 for all n20.
( 3999
(d). Find the smallest positive residue r such that
Er (mod 26).
(e). For which integers c, 0<c < 30, does the congruence 12x = c (mod 30) have solutions?
When the solutions exists, then how many incongruent solutions are there?
(f). Let n > 1, we define K, = 2²" + 5. In the sequence K,,K2,K3,.….. can there be a prime
number? Justify.
