What is the truth table for p and negation q?
P | T T F F Q | T F T F Q' | F T F T P + Q' | F T F F The layout is the best I could do with this software. Hope it is OK.
Q equals m plus x t plus c In this equation what does Q t and c represent?
In the equation Q equals m plus x t plus c, Q represents the total quantity or value being measured or calculated. t represents the variable or time period being observed or measured. c represents the constant term or the y-intercept, which is the value of Q when t equals zero.
What letter logically follows T Q N K H?
T,Q,N,K,H,E next number

Greatest prime number that can be represented as both the sum of 2 prime numbers as well as difference of 2 prime numbers?
We will use the fact that if p prime, a divides p, then a = p or a = 1. Then if p + q = r, for primes p, q, r, then one of p,q,r is even, or all three are (consider mod 2). p = q = r = 2 clearly doesn't work, and p + q = 2 doesn't work for primes p,q >= 3. So without loss of generality p = 2, then r = q+2. r is also the difference of two primes, r = s - t. Again considering mod 2, knowing that r is odd, one of s or t is even (and so equal to 2). If s = 2 then r is negative, so t = 2, and we have q + 2 = r = t - 2, so t = q + 4. So we have q, r = q + 2 and t = q + 4 all prime. By considering q mod 3, one of them has a factor 3. If a prime has a factor 3, it is equal to 3. So q = 3, as q + 2 = 3 or q + 4 = 3 mean q is not prime. So, r = q + 2 = 5. Therefore, 5 is the only prime that can be represented as both the sum of two primes and the difference of two primes: 5 = 2 + 3 = 7 - 2. Since it is the only one, it is the greatest.
