... Let us observe that r = 1 and s = cr is always a solution of (2). With this initial value we can generate infinitely many solutions of (2) using (6). But it happens that this sequence of solutions does not contain all the solutions of (2) for some values of a. We are led to the problem of finding al ...

... that ap−1 ≡ 1 (mod pn ). Solution by Paul Young, Charleston, SC For any prime p the integer a = k · pn + 1 is such an integer for any k > 0, since a ≡ 1 (mod pn ) implies ap−1 ≡ 1 (mod pn ). This shows that there are in fact infinitely many primes a satisfying the given condition (by Dirichlet’s The ...

Elementary mathematics
Elementary mathematics consists of mathematics topics frequently taught at the primary or secondary school levels. The most basic topics in elementary mathematics are arithmetic and geometry. Beginning in the last decades of the 20th century, there has been an increased emphasis on problem solving. Elementary mathematics is used in everyday life in such activities as making change, cooking, buying and selling stock, and gambling. It is also an essential first step on the path to understanding science.In secondary school, the main topics in elementary mathematics are algebra and trigonometry. Calculus, even though it is often taught to advanced secondary school students, is usually considered college level mathematics.
