Find all polynomials P(x) such that: P(x-1).P(x+1)=P(x2-1)
Solution
Suppose that α is a root of P(x) then, P(α)=0
Therefore, P((α+1)-1)=0
Find all polynomials P(x) such that: P(x-1).P(x+1)=P(x2-1)
Solution
Suppose that α is a root of P(x) then, P(α)=0
Therefore, P((α+1)-1)=0
Find the last two digits of : N=(1!+2!+3!+.......+101!)^101
Note: This is equivalent to finding N(mod11).
ie: The remainder when dividing N by 100.
Observation: 10!\equiv0(mod100) Because, 10!=10...5...2
Therefore, N\equiv(1!+2!+3!+......+9!)^101(mod100)
N\equiv(1+2+6+24+20+20+40+20+80)^101(mod100)
N\equiv13^101(mod100)
