Let S = {true, false}. Define a boolean function f :N→S by f (n) = true if year n is a leap year and false otherwise. Find f (n) for each year n. a. 1996 b. 2076 15. Determine the day of the week of each historical date. a. March 7, 1876 (first telephone patent issued to Alexander Graham Bell) b. December 17, 1903 (world’s first flight) c. April 12, 1961 (first human travel in space) 16. The day of January 1 of any year y can be determined using the formula JGV Pedraza Learning Packet 4| Number Theory 77 i where 0 ≤ x ≤ 6. (G. L. Ritter, 1977) Using this formula, determine the first day in each year. a. 2076 b. 3000 17. (Easter Sunday) The date for Easter Sunday in any year y can be computed as follows. Let a = y mod 19, b = y mod 4, c = y mod 7, d = (19a + 24) mod 30, e = (2b + 4c + 6d + 5) mod 7, and r = 22 + d + e. If r ≤ 31, then Easter Sunday is March r; otherwise, it is April [r (mod 31)]. Compute the date for Easter Sunday in each year. a. 1996 b. 2076 18. Solve the recurrence relation gn = gn−1 + (n − 1), where g1 = 0. 19. Develop a round-robin tournament schedule with a. Six teams b. Nine teams Explaining Concepts: Discussion and Writing (Recitation) 20. We would like to schedule a round-robin tournament with seven teams, 1 through 7. Pair team i with team j in round k, where j ≡ i+1+k (mod 7).Will this pairing provide a conflict- free and duplication-free schedule? If not, explain why. JGV Pedraza
