Assume that $a$ is a zero divisor, then there exists $c \neq 0$ such that $ac = 0$. Then, $(ab)c = 0b \Rightarrow (1)(c) = 0$ implies that $c = 0$, which is a contradiction. *** b By definition, there exists $b$, with $b \neq 0$ such that $ab = 0$. Assume that $a$ is a unit, then there exists $c$ such that $ac = 1$. Then, $(b)ac = 1b \Rightarrow 0c = b$ implies that $b = 0$, which is a contradiction. ** Question Eleven By definition of $a$ being a unit, there exists $ay = 1$ with $y$ being an inverse of $a$. By multiplying our target $(y)ax = (y)b \Rightarrow x = yb$. To prove this is unique, assume that $k$ and $l$ are solutions of $ax = b$. Then, $ak = b$ and $al = b$. Since $a$ is a unit, by using our previous strategy, $(y)ak = (y)b$ and $(y)al = (y)b$, so $k = yb$ and $l = yb$ and thus $k = l$. * Chapter 13 ** A2 As $p | c \Rightarrow c = pk$, and $p | c \Rightarrow c = ql$ then $pk = ql$ and thus by Theorem 1.5 since $p$ and $q$ are prime $p | l$ or $p | q$ and $q | p$ or $q | k$, but since $p$ and $q$ are prime, then it must be that only $p | l$ and $q | k$. Since $p | l$ then $l = mp$ and $c = ql \Rightarrow c = qmp$ and $qp$ is a factor of $c$. ** A3 (a) GO = 0715 715^3 (mod 2773) = 107
