... Any number can be written as the product of factors of primes. A prime number is any number that is only divisible by 1 and itself. Therefore if the FTA is applied to any integer, we know the number is either a prime number or a composite number, which would be a multiple of some prime numbers found ...

Solutions
... To show that the given set (let’s call it E) is countable we need to construct a bijection between N and E. Let f : N → E be given by f (n) = 2n − 1. This function is 1-1 because if f (n1 ) = f (n2 ) then 2n1 − 1 = 2n2 − 1, which implies 2n1 = 2n2 , and then n1 = n2 . This function is onto because a ...

Lindstrom with weights
... So, problem 4 is in some ways a special case of problem 2. Note: If you try to apply Dodgson condensation directly to the tridiagonal matrix, you’ll run into lots of 0/0 situations. There’s a clever way to replace the 0’s by powers of epsilon and then send epsilon to 0. Lindstrom with weights (You m ...
