Mark each of the following true or false.

__ a. ap-l = 1 (mod p) for all integers a and primes

__ b. ap-1 = 1 (mod p) for all integers a such that a ^ 0 (mod p) for a prime p.

__ c. φ(n)+.

__ d. φ(n)+.

__ e. The units in ℤ„ are the positive integers less than n and relatively prime to n.

__ f. The product of two units in ℤn is always a unit.

__ g. The product of two nonunils in ℤn may be a unit.

__ h. The product of a unit and a nonunit in ℤn is never a unit.

__ i. Every congruence ax = b (mod p), where p is a prime, has a solution.

__ j. Let d be the gcd of positive integers a and m. If d divides b, then the congruence ax = b (mod m)

has exactly d incongruent solutions.
