In a stack of CDs, there are 3 types: Rock, Pop and Jazz. There are 2 Rock CDs, x Pop CDs, and (2x+5) Jazz CDs. A CD is chosen at random. If the probability it is Rock is 1/20, work out the probability it is Jazz.

Number of Rock CDs = 2Total Number of CDs = 2 + x + (2x+5) = 3x + 7Probability of Rock CD = 2/(3x + 7) = 1/202/(3x + 7) = 1/2040 = 3x + 7x = 11Number of Jazz CDs = 2x + 5 = 27Total Number of CDs = 3x + 7 ...

Demonstrate that (2^n)-1 is not a perfect square for any n>2, n ∈ N.

Assumption: If sqrt(2^n- 1) ∈ℕ , it means that there is a k ∈ ℕ such that (2^n-1) = k^2  ⇒ k is odd, so there is m ∈ ℕ such that (2^n-1)=(2m+1)^2 . By solving the equation we get 2^n= 4m^2+4m+2. We divide...

Prove that the square of an odd number is always 1 more than a multiple of 4

An odd number can be expressed by the formula "2n + 1" where n stands for any integer. Therefore, the square of any odd number can be expressed as:(2n+1)^2 = (2n+1)(2n+1) = 4n^2 + 4n + 1 = 4(n^2...
