- Let G be an abelian group of order 2n, where n is odd. Use Lagranges Theorem to prove that G contains exactly one element of order 2.arrow_forwardIf G is a cyclic group, prove that the equation x2=e has at most two distinct solutions in G.arrow_forward13. Assume that are subgroups of the abelian group . Prove that if and only if is generated byarrow_forward
- 14. Let be an abelian group of order where and are relatively prime. If and , prove that .arrow_forward16. Suppose that is an abelian group with respect to addition, with identity element Define a multiplication in by for all . Show that forms a ring with respect to these operations.arrow_forward9. Find all homomorphic images of the octic group.arrow_forward
- True or False Label each of the following statements as either true or false. 6. The set of all nonzero elements in is an abelian group with respect to multiplication.arrow_forward15. Prove that if for all in the group , then is abelian.arrow_forwardlet Un be the group of units as described in Exercise16. Prove that [ a ]Un if and only if a and n are relatively prime. Exercise16 For an integer n1, let G=Un, the group of units in n that is, the set of all [ a ] in n that have multiplicative inverses. Prove that Un is a group with respect to multiplication.arrow_forward
- Prove that if r and s are relatively prime positive integers, then any cyclic group of order rs is the direct sum of a cyclic group of order r and a cyclic group of order s.arrow_forward23. Let be a group that has even order. Prove that there exists at least one element such that and . (Sec. ) Sec. 4.4, #30: 30. Let be an abelian group of order , where is odd. Use Lagrange’s Theorem to prove that contains exactly one element of order .arrow_forward25. Prove or disprove that every group of order is abelian.arrow_forward
