... • The difference between successive squares of integers will be the odd numbers in sequence (e.g. 32 + 7 = 42, 42 + 9 = 52, 52 + 11 = 62) Furthermore, the equation n2 + (2n + 1) = (n+1)2 can be used to generate Pythagorean triples, but the term (2n+1) must be viewed as a perfect square. 1. Let m2 = ...

... Each row of Pascal’s triangle contains the coefficients in the expansion of a power of (a + b). Such expansions are called binomial expansions because of the two terms a and b in the brackets. Row n contains the coefficients in the binomial expansion (a + b) n. To expand (a + b) 4 we would use the b ...

... This means that our conjecture that the sum of n consecutive numbers is a multiple of n is in general false, because it is false for n = 4, which is therefore a counterexample disproving our conjecture. Just to rub it in, and we should probably have done this first: the conjecture is not true for n ...

By Brouwer’s Fixed Point Theorem, this map has a fixed point, which must be a nonnegative eigenvector of A for some positive eigenvalue, λ. Because a power of A is positive, the eigenvector must be positive. STEP 2: stochasticize ...

Shifting, however, is problematic, since shifting continues an indefinite number of times until the two numbers involved are both positive. There is, however, an optimization that can be used to determine ...
