Integer Work with Tiles Winter 2013 INTEGER WORK WITH TILES Using +/- tiles, build the number “4” in at least three different ways. Sketch each model after you have built it. 1) 2) 3) Again using the +/- tiles, build the number “0” in at least three different ways. Sketch each model after you have built it. Each of these models represents a “NEUTRAL FIELD” or “ZERO PAIR.” 1) 2) 3) Now build at least three different representations of the number “-3.” Sketch each model after you have built it. 1) 2) 3) Using +/- tiles, build a model of the following numbers with the smallest number of tiles possible. Sketch each model below. 1) -6 2) 5 3) -1 Now add a neutral field to each model immediately above until you have AT LEAST 10 tiles. Has the value of each model changed? Explain below. Integer Work with Tiles Page 1 of 6 Winter 2013 INTEGER ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION Adapted from CPM Educational Program Addition Example: -8 + 6 0 Start with a neutral field which is an + + + + equal number of positive and negative - - - - tiles and has a value of zero. -8 +6 - - - - - - - - + + + + + + Display the two numbers using tiles. + + + + - - - - Combine the two numbers with the + + + + + + + + + + neutral field. - - - - - - - - - - - - -8 + (+6) Circle the “zeros.” Record the sum. + + + + + + + + + + - - - - - - - - - - - - -8 + 6 = -2 Subtraction Example: -2 – (-4) Start with the first number displayed + + + + with the neutral field. - - - - - - -2 Circle the second number in your sketch and show with an arrow that + + + + it will be removed. Remove the second - - - - - - number. -2 – (-4) Circle the “zeros.” Record the difference. + + + + - - -2 – (-4) = 2 Integer Work with Tiles Page 2 of 6 Winter 2013 INTEGER MULTIPLICATION Adapted from CPM Educational Program Multiplication is repeated addition or subtraction in a problem with two factors. The first factor tells us how many groups we are adding (+) or subtracting (-). The second factor tells us how many are in each group and whether they are positive (+) or negative (-). (2)(3) means add 2 groups of 3 positive tiles. (2)(-3) means add 2 groups of 3 negative tiles. (-2)(3) means remove 2 groups of 3 positive tiles. (-2)(-3) means remove 2 groups of 3 negative tiles. Multiplication Example: (2)(-5) 0 -5 Start with a neutral field. Since the first - - - - - factor is positive, groups will be added to + + + + the neutral field. Build 2 groups of 5 - - - - -5 negative tiles. - - - - - Combine with the neutral field, circle the + + + + “zeros” and record the product. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - (2)(-5) = -10 Multiplication Example: (-2)(-3) 0 Start with a neutral field. + + + + + + + + - - - - - - - - Since the first factor is negative, circle the two groups of negatives that will be removed. + + + + + + + + Use arrow to indicate removal. - - - - - - - - -3 -3 Remove the groups, circle the “zeros” and + + + + + + + + record the product. - - (-2)(-3) = 6 Integer Work with Tiles Page 3 of 6 Winter 2013 INTEGER DIVISION Division is the inverse of multiplication and can also be seen as repeated addition or subtraction in a problem with two factors. The first number is the dividend and tells us what number is our goal. The second number is the divisor and tells us the size of the groups we are adding or removing to make the dividend or goal number. You will find how many groups of the divisor must be “added” to create the dividend. If this is impossible, you will find how many groups of the divisor must be “removed” to create the dividend. (6) ÷ (3) means how many groups of positive 3 would need to be added to get 6? (-6) ÷ (-3) means how many groups of negative 3 would need to be added to get “-6?” (6) ÷ (-3) means how many groups of negative 3 would need to be removed to get 6? (-6) ÷ (3) means how many groups of positive 3 would need to be removed to get -6? Division Example: (-6) ÷ (-3) -3 0 - - - Start with a neutral field and add groups + + + + of negative 3 until you get negative 6. -3 - - - - - - - Combine with the neutral field, circle the “zeros” and record the number of groups + + + + you had to add, this is the quotient or answer. - - - - - - - - - - (-6) ÷ (-3) = 2 Division Example: (-6) ÷ (3) 0 Start with a neutral field. No matter how you try to add groups of positive 3, + + + + + + + + you will NEVER get negative 6. - - - - - - - - +3 +3 Therefore, you must take away groups of positive 3 from the neutral field until you + + + + + + + + get negative 6. - - - - - - - - Circle the neutral fields. Since you had to + + remove 2 groups of positive 3 to get negative - - - - - - - - 6 the quotient or answer is negative 2. (-6) ÷ (3) = (-2) Integer Work with Tiles Page 4 of 6 Winter 2013 OPERATIONS WITH INTEGERS Using the +/- tiles, represent each of the statements below. Sketch each model, show the addition or subtraction, and write your simplified solution below each drawing. 1) -5 + (-2) 2) -5 + 2 3) 5 + (-2) 4) -5 – (-2) 5) -5 – 2 6) 5 – (-2) 7) -3 – (-5) 8) -3 – 5 9) 3 – (-5) Using +/- tiles represent each of the products and sketch the model below the problem. If the first factor in the product is positive, you add that many groups of the second integer. If the first factor in the product is negative, you remove that many groups of the second integer. Always begin with a neutral pair. Write your solution below each drawing. 1) 3 × 4 2) 3 × (−4) 3) -3 × (−4) € 4) 2 ( 6) 5) - 2 × 6 6) -2 ( 6) × − € € × − € 7) -3 x 4 € 8) 2 x (-3) € 9) -4 x (-2) Integer Work with Tiles Page 5 of 6 Winter 2013 Using +/- tiles represent each of the quotients and sketch the model below the problem. You will find how many groups of the divisor must be “added” to create the dividend. If this is impossible, you will find how many groups of the divisor must be “removed” to create the dividend. Begin with a neutral pair. 1) 12 ÷ 3 2) -12 ÷ (-3) 3) -12 ÷ 3 4) 12 ÷ (-3) 5) -9 ÷ (-3) 6) -8 ÷ 4 Integer Work with Tiles Page 6 of 6 .

  • Integer Linear Programs
    20 ________________________________________________________________________________________________ Integer Linear Programs Many linear programming problems require certain variables to have whole number, or integer, values. Such a requirement arises naturally when the variables represent enti- ties like packages or people that can not be fractionally divided — at least, not in a mean- ingful way for the situation being modeled. Integer variables also play a role in formulat- ing equation systems that model logical conditions, as we will show later in this chapter. In some situations, the optimization techniques described in previous chapters are suf- ficient to find an integer solution. An integer optimal solution is guaranteed for certain network linear programs, as explained in Section 15.5. Even where there is no guarantee, a linear programming solver may happen to find an integer optimal solution for the par- ticular instances of a model in which you are interested. This happened in the solution of the multicommodity transportation model (Figure 4-1) for the particular data that we specified (Figure 4-2). Even if you do not obtain an integer solution from the solver, chances are good that you’ll get a solution in which most of the variables lie at integer values. Specifically, many solvers are able to return an ‘‘extreme’’ solution in which the number of variables not lying at their bounds is at most the number of constraints. If the bounds are integral, all of the variables at their bounds will have integer values; and if the rest of the data is integral, many of the remaining variables may turn out to be integers, too.

She wants to carry 10 bananas with her. Can her mother give 10 bananas to her? She does not have enough, so she borrows 2 bananas from her neighbour to be returned later. After giving 10 bananas to Sunita, how many bananas are left with her mother? Can we say that she has zero bananas? She has no bananas with her, but has to return two to her neighbour. So when she gets some more bananas, say 6, she will return 2 and be left with 4 only. Ronald goes to the market to purchase a pen. He has only ` 12 with him but the pen costs ` 15. The shopkeeper writes ` 3 as due amount from him. He writes ` 3 in his diary to remember Ronald’s debit. But how would he remember whether ` 3 has to be given or has to be taken from Ronald? Can he express this debit by some colour or sign? Ruchika and Salma are playing a game using a number strip which is marked from 0 to 25 at equal intervals. To begin with, both of them placed a coloured token at the zero mark. Two coloured dice are placed in a bag and are taken out by them one by one. If the die is red in colour, the token is moved forward as per the number shown on throwing this die. If it is blue, the token is moved backward as per the number 2021-22 MATHEMATICS shown when this die is thrown.

  • Solutions to Exercises
    Solutions to Exercises Solutions for Chapter 2 Exercise 2.1 Provide a function to check if a character is alphanumeric, that is lower case, upper case or numeric. One solution is to follow the same approach as in the function isupper for each of the three possibilities and link them with the special operator \/ : isalpha c = (c >= ’A’ & c <= ’Z’) \/ (c >= ’a’ & c <= ’z’) \/ (c >= ’0’ & c <= ’9’) An second approach is to use continued relations: isalpha c = (’A’ <= c <= ’Z’) \/ (’a’ <= c <= ’z’) \/ (’0’ <= c <= ’9’) A final approach is to define the functions isupper, islower and isdigit and combine them: isalpha c = (isupper c) \/ (islower c) \/ (isdigit c) This approach shows the advantage of reusing existing simple functions to build more complex functions. 268 Solutions to Exercises 269 Exercise 2.2 What happens in the following application and why? myfst (3, (4 div 0)) The function evaluates to 3, the potential divide by zero error is ignored because Miranda only evaluates as much of its parameter as it needs. Exercise 2.3 Define a function dup which takes a single element of any type and returns a tuple with the element duplicated. The answer is just a direct translation of the specification into Miranda: dup :: * -> (*,*) dup x = (x, x) Exercise 2.4 Modify the function solomonGrundy so that Thursday and Friday may be treated with special significance. The pattern matching version is easily modified; all that is needed is to insert the extra cases somewhere before the default pattern: solomonGrundy "Monday" = "Born" solomonGrundy "Thursday" = "Ill" solomonGrundy "Friday" = "Worse" solomonGrundy "Sunday" = "Buried" solomonGrundy anyday = "Did something else" By contrast, a guarded conditional version is rather messy: solomonGrundy day = "Born", if day = "Monday" = "Ill", if day = "Thursday" = "Worse", if day = "Friday" = "Buried", if day = "Sunday" = "Did something else", otherwise Exercise 2.5 Define a function intmax which takes a number pair and returns the greater of its two components.

  • 1. Simplicity.-Let N Denote an Arbitrary Integer >0, and M an Odd of N, Aimn
    160 MA THEMA TICS: E. T. BELL PROC. N. A. S. SIMPLICITY WITH RESPECT TO CERTAIN QUADRA TIC FORMS By E. T. BiLL DGPARTMUNT OF MATrHMATICS, CALUORNmA INSTITUTE OP T'CHINOIOGY Communicated December 28, 1929 1. Simplicity.-Let n denote an arbitrary integer >0, and m an odd interger >0. Write N[n = f] for the number of representations of n in the quadratic form f when this number is finite. If N[n = f] is a polynomial P(n) in the real divisors of n alone, N[n = f] is, by definition, simple; similarly for N[m = f]. In previous papers,1'23I have considered simplicity when f is a sum of an even number of squares. For an odd number > 1 of squares, no N[n = f] is simple, although if n be restricted to be a square, say k2, then N[k2 = f] is simple when f is a sum of 3, 5 or 7 squares, and for one case (k restricted) of 11 squares. To discuss simplicity for forms f in an odd number of variables, the above definition was extended in a former paper4 as follows. The exten- sion leads to theorems that are actually useful in calculations of numbers of representations, and it was devised with this end in view. Let 2 refer to all positive, zero or negative integers t which are congruent modulo M to a fixed integer T, and which render the arguments of the summand >0. Let P(n) denote a polynomial in the real divisors alone of n, and let c be a constant integer >O.

  • Proof Techniques
    Proof Techniques Jessica Su November 12, 2016 1 Proof techniques Here we will learn to prove universal mathematical statements, like \the square of any odd number is odd". It's easy enough to show that this is true in specific cases { for example, 32 = 9, which is an odd number, and 52 = 25, which is another odd number. However, to prove the statement, we must show that it works for all odd numbers, which is hard because you can't try every single one of them. Note that if we want to disprove a universal statement, we only need to find one counterex- ample. For instance, if we want to disprove the statement \the square of any odd number is even", it suffices to provide a specific example of an odd number whose square is not even. (For instance, 32 = 9, which is not an even number.) Rule of thumb: • To prove a universal statement, you must show it works in all cases. • To disprove a universal statement, it suffices to find one counterexample. (For \existence" statements, this is reversed. For example, if your statement is \there exists at least one odd number whose square is odd, then proving the statement just requires saying 32 = 9, while disproving the statement would require showing that none of the odd numbers have squares that are odd.) 1.0.1 Proving something is true for all members of a group If we want to prove something is true for all odd numbers (for example, that the square of any odd number is odd), we can pick an arbitrary odd number x, and try to prove the statement for that number.

CONCLUSION 95 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 97 REFERENCES 98 APPENDICES 100 APPENDIX I 101 APPENDIX II 109 APPENDIX III 116 APPENDIX IV 127 INTRODUCTION Linear programming was developed in the early 50's. Since then, it has become a powerful mathematical tool in solving a number of military, economic, and industrial problems. Prima- rily, linear programming helps in selecting a best schedule of actions among many conflicting alternatives and may be applied to systems having the following characteristics: 1. Some objective to be optimized, such as maximum profit or minimum cost. 2. There are a number of variables to be considered simultaneously. 3. In addition to many variables, there are a number of constraints on the system which the solution must satisfy. These restrictions are linear and may represent such quantities as production capacity or limited sales. In general, linear programming problems are solved by the simplex method. In some situations, the simplex solution which allows for fractional values of the variables may not provide the solution that is desired. For example, in an airline sched- uling, it makes little sense to speak of an optimal solution in terms of fractional units of planes or people.

  • Chapter 4 Loops
    Chapter 4 Loops 4.1 Introduction • Loops are structures that control repeated executions of a block of statements. • Java provides a powerful control structure called a loop, which controls how many times an operation or a sequence of operation is performed in succession. • Java provides three types of loop statements while loops, do-while loops, and for loops. 4.2 The while Loop • The syntax for the while loop is as follows: while (loop-continuation-condition) { // loop-body Statement(s); } • The braces enclosing a while loop or any other loop can be omitted only if the loop body contains one or no statement. The while loop flowchart is in Figure (a). • The loop-continuation-condition, a Boolean expression, must appear inside the parentheses. It is always evaluated before the loop body is executed. • If its evaluation is true, the loop body is executed; if its evaluation is false, the entire loop terminates, and the program control turns to the statement that follows the while loop. CMPS161 Class Notes (Chap 04) Page 1 /25 Kuo-pao Yang • For example, the following while loop prints Welcome to Java! 100 times. int count = 0; while (count < 100) { System.out.println("Welcome to Java!"); count++; } count = 0; Loop false false Continuation (count < 100)? Condition? true true Statement(s) System.out.println("Welcome to Java!"); (loop body) count++; (A) (B) FIGURE 4.1 The while loop repeatedly executes the statements in the loop body when the loop-continuation-condition evaluates to true. Caution • Make sure that the loop-continuation-condition eventually becomes false so that the program will terminate.

    • Problems & Solutions As November (the 11th month) gets underway, it’s the perfect time to focus on 11. Eleven is the fourth prime number, and there is a fun divisibility rule for 11. For any integer, insert alternating “–” and “+” signs between the consecutive pairs of digits, starting with a “–” sign between the left-most pair of digits. For example, for the number 91,828 we would have 9 – 1 + 8 – 2 + 8. (Notice that the first minus went between the left-most pair of numbers, 9 and 1, and then we alternated with “+” and “–” signs.) Now, simplify the expression. For our example, we have 9 – 1 + 8 – 2 + 8 = 22. Since this value, 22, is divisible by 11, the original number is divisible by 11. Using this rule, if the five-digit integer 76,9a2 is a multiple of 11, what is the value of a? We can set up the expression 7 – 6 + 9 – a + 2 and simplify it to 12 – a. We now know that in order for 76,9a2 to be a multiple of 11, the expression 12 – a must be a multiple of 11. The multiples of 11 are 0, 11, 22, 33, etc. Since a must be a single digit, the only possibility is 12 – a = 11, and therefore, a = 1. We can check with a calculator to see that 76,912 is in fact divisible by 11. When playing many games, players must roll a pair of dice and find the sum of the two numbers rolled. With two dice, there are 11 possible sums ranging from 2 through 12.

  • 1.1 Integer Types in Matlab 3
    Section 1.1 Integer Types in Matlab 3 1.1 Integer Types in Matlab In this section we will introduce the various datatypes available in Matlab that are used for storing integers. There are two distinct types: one for unsigned integers, and a second for signed integers. An unsigned integer type is only capable of storing positive integers (and zero) in a well defined range. Unsigned integer types are used to store both positive and negative integers (and zero) in a well defined range. Each type, signed and unsigned, has different classes that are distinguished by the number of bytes used for storage. As we shall see, uint8, uint16, uint32, and uint64 use 8 bits, 16 bits, 32 bits, and 64 bits to store unsigned integers, respectively. On the other hand, int8, int16, int32, and int64 use 8 bits, 16 bits, 32 bits, and 64 bits to store signed integers, respectively. Let’s begin with a discussion of the base ten system for representing integers. Base Ten Most of us are familiar with base ten arithmetic, simply because that is the number system we have been using for all of our lives. For example, the number 2345, when expanded in powers of ten, is written as follows. 2345 = 2000 + 300 + 40 + 5 = 2 · 1000 + 3 · 100 + 4 · 10 + 5 = 2 · 103 + 3 · 102 + 4 · 101 + 5 · 100 There is an old-fahsioned algorithm which will allows us to expand the num- ber 2345 in powers of ten. It involves repeatedly dividing by 10 and listing the remainders, as shown in Table 1.1.

  • Addition and Subtraction of Integers
    Math 0300 Addition and Subtraction of Integers Integers are the negative numbers, zero, and positive numbers Addition of integers An integer can be represented or graphed on a number line by an arrow. An arrow pointing to the right represents a positive number. An arro w pointing to the left represents a negative num ber. The absolute value of the number can be determined by counting the distance to zero, or by counting the distance between numbers in the arrow. The integers 5 and –4 are shown on the number line in the figure below. Example: +5 -4 -8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Example: Another example of integers or positive and negative numbers is used with a checking account or dealing with money. A deposit to your checking account or pocket is an example of an addition called a positive integer (number or amount); a deduction or expense is an example of a negative integer (number/amount). If there is a balance of $25 in a checking account, and a check is written for $30, the account will be overdrawn/overspent by $5. The sum of two integers can be shown on a number line. To add two integers, find the point on the number line corresponding to the first addend (integer). The sum is the number directly below the tip of the arrow. Example: +2 4 + 2 = 6 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 -2 -4 +(-2) = - 6 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 +2 -4 + 2 = -2 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Student Learning Assistance Center - San Antonio College 1 Math 0300 -2 4 + (-2) = 2 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 The signs of the addends can categorize the sums shown above.
