... where the number of zeros between units increases by one, is irrational. Solution. Assume that A is a repeating fraction, i.e., after the first k digits, the same sequence of n digits (we’ll call it period) repeats. Since the number of consecutive zeros in the decimal representation of A is increasi ...

It was natural for mathematicians in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries to think in terms of "infinitesimal," as finding tangents involved looking at secants of points infinitely close together and calculating areas involved adding the areas of infinitely small rectangles. But this notion led ...

... E. First, note that we have a three-number pattern that repeats odd, odd, even, odd, odd, even. So, two numbers out of every three-number sequence are odd. With that in mind, how many three-number patterns are there in 1,000 numbers? 333.333, says your calculator. It’s true; we can break 1,000 numbe ...

... S ⊆ [n]d is a down-set if s ∈ S implies x ∈ S for all x s. We will frequently use the following simple observation stating that any down-set can be viewed as a d − 1-dimensional partition. This is best explained by Figures 1a and 1b, but we include the formal proof for completeness. Observation 2. ...
