Alyssa Mitcnel OY Yr Q6+14 U~ Homework #4 Section 4 Professor. Kidg ) Prove that theres @ real number % such that x-Sx+ 6= 0. i Progf: We will Find an % that ts a.solution, of the equation. Instead of using some of the techniques forsolving such, an equartion, we just prapase that x=2 works. Lndhis case, if is a simple a ey at (2-5) + 6 = 471016 = 0. 5) Prove that lf ois 0 foctor of a, then dl isa factor of a+b, Proof: Assume thatd divides a. Then a-dq for some q. Therefore, ab= d(qb) and hence d.divides ab- 4 S 0) Prove that if d isa factor of a jand dis a factor ks b, then d Asa Factor of arb. eS Sy 7 Se4 of integers a as Proof: a6 e2,and dis a factor of a and &. & io > Akond Lez so that a=dk and. b= df iy sibs dk, ath=d(k+O, kekeZ oy Sdis Q factor of ath XM y Prove thai Here | isa ceal number ¢ > such \ that 2< [x4 2.01.
