The key is to notice that the last digit of t 2 only depends on the last digit of t. ) You can contact him at dmurphy-at-math-dot-stanford-dot-edu. 12 Findtheordersofthefollowingelementsofthemultiplicativegroup(Z=12Z) : 1; 1;5;7; 7;13: Math 120 HW 4 Solutions Xiaoyu He, with Questions 5A/5B/5C by Prof. This is also a Writing in the Major class. But it is easy to see (by induction, for example) that if bcommutes with a, then it also commutes with ak for any positive k. (6 points) (a) What is the order of A 4? (b) How many rotations of the cube have order exactly 2 (i. Solvable and simple groups. N G(S) = fg2G: gSg 1 = Sg. 3 # 2 (˙;˝;˙˝;˝˙only), 5,13,20, • Section 1. G a = fg2G: ga= ag. Only Math 50/60CM/60DM series and first-year single-variable calculus can be double counted toward any other major or minor. Overview of Groups: 9/24/12 1 2 E-mail: tfchurch@stanford.
