11 are all prime numbers. b) Suppose that r and s are integers. Prove the following: ∃ an integer k such that 22r + 18s = 2k. Solution: Let k = 11r + 9s. Then k is an integer because it is a sum of products of integers 2k = 2(11r + 9s)‚ which equals 22r + 18s Q# 3: The only divisors of 1 are 1 and −1 prove it. (8) Solution: Since 1·1 = 1 and (−1)(−1) = 1‚ both 1 and −1 are divisors of 1. Now suppose m is any integer that divides 1. Then there exists an integer n such
