Challenge activity: A partition of a positive integer n is the expression of n as the sum of positive integers, whe...
Show that every positive integer n, there is a string of n consecutive integers where first integer is even, the second is divisible by a perfect square(other than 1), the third by a perfect cube(other than 1), etc..., and the nth is divisible by the nth power of an integer(other than 1). Then find an example for n = 3.
A perfect number is a positive integer that equals the sum of all of its divisors (including the divisor 1 but excluding the number itself). For example 6, 28 and 496 are perfect numbers because 6=1+2+3 28 1 + 2 + 4 + 7 + 14 496 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 31 + 62 + 124 + 248 Write a program to read a positive integer value, N, and find the smallest perfect number...
3. Consecutive Sums a. (4 pts) Write 90 as the sum of consecutive positive integers in as many ways as possible. b. (4 pts) If a number can be written as n (d)(t) where d is an odd number of the form 2k + 1 and d is greater than 1, show symbolically how n can be written as the sum of consecutive numbers. Illustrate this with one example from part a. c. (4 pts) State a conjecture identifying the...
Problem 3: (5 2 points) Design an algorithm that takes an array of positive integers A of length n and a positive integer T as an input and finds the largest N < T such that N can be written as a sum of some elements of A and returns such a representation of N. The complexity of the algorithms has to be O(nT). For example, for A 3,7, 10 and T 19, the output is 17 7+10, because we...
C++ program which partitions n positive integers into two disjoint sets with the same sum. Consider all possible subsets of the input numbers. This is the sample Input 1 6 3 5 20 7 1 14 Output 1 Equal Set: 1 3 7 14 This is the sample Input 2 5 10 8 6 4 2 Output 2 Equal Set: 0
Prove: If n and a are positive integers and n=(a^2+ 1)/2, then n is the sum of the squares of two consecutive integers (that is, n=k^2+ (k+1)^2 for some integer k).
A perfect number is a positive integer that is equal to the sum of its (proper) positive divisors, including 1 but excluding itself. A divisor of a number is one which divides the number evenly (i.e., without a remainder). For example, consider number 6. Its divisors are 1, 2, 3, and 6. Since we do not include number itself, we only have 1, 2, and 3. Because the sum of these divisors of 6 is 6, i.e., 1 + 2...
You are given a positive integer n, break it into the sum of at least two positive integers and maximize the product of those integers. Return the maximum 2 product you can get. (Example Input: 10, Output: 36, Explanation: 10 = 3 3 4 = 36). What is your answer for n = 82. Write a python code for this
