    Logical reasoning problem with multiple variables

    It was unfortunate that Rose and the other four coworkers in her department live in different suburbs because otherwise they might have been able to carpool. As it stands, each of the five drives to work every day on a different route. Every day last week from Monday through Friday, one of the five arrived late to work because o

    Mod and Divisibility Proof

    Let i, j, n be positive integers with i > j. Let f(x) in Zn[x] have non-zero constant term, and let d = o(x mod f(x)). Suppose that x^i and x^j have the same remainder on division by f(x). Prove that i-j >= d. -- Theorem 4.7.2 Suppose that F is a field of order |F| = q and that f(x) in F[x] has degree n >= 1 and has non-zer

    Game Theory : Two Person Zero Sum Game

    Two armies are advancing on two cities. The first army has 4 regiments and the second army has 3 regiments. At each city, the army that send more regiments to the city captures both the city and the opposing army regiment. If both armies send the same number of regiments to a city, them the battle at the city is a draw. Each

    Two-Person Zero-Sum Game Problem

    Need help setting up this 3X4 Matrix problem. I have only worked 2X2 matrix game problems per recent homework, however, I can't seem to leverage that knowledge for this problem. I'm also not sure how to deal with the extra reward variable (one point for capturing each of the other army's bn). Also need help setting up the LP for
