Let \(n\ge r\) be positive integers. What is \(F_n^2-F_{n-r}F_{n+r}\) in terms of \(F_r\)?
On the questioners’ planet (where everyone can only ask questions. Cricks can only ask questions to which the answer is yes, and Goops can only ask questions to which the answer is no), you meet 4 alien mathematicians.
They’re called Alexander Grothendieck, Nicolas Bourbaki, Henri Cartan and Daniel Kan (you may like to shorten their names to \(A\), \(B\), \(C\) and \(D\)).
Alexander asks the following question “Am I the kind who could ask whether Bourbaki could ask whether Cartan could ask whether Daniel is a Goop?"
Amongst the final three (that is, Bourbaki, Cartan and Daniel), are there an even or an odd number of Goops?
Suppose that \(p\) is a prime number. How many numbers are there less than \(p^2\) that are relatively prime to \(p^2\)?
How many cuboids are contained in an \(n\times n\times n\) cube? For example, we’ve got \(n^3\) cuboids of size \(1\times1\times1\), and obviously just \(1\) of size \(n\times n\times n\) (which is the whole cube itself). But we also have to count how many there of size \(1\times1\times2\), \(1\times2\times3\), and several more.
In the \(6\times7\) large rectangle shown below, how many rectangles are there in total formed by grid lines? [need to insert image]
Simplify \(F_0-F_1+F_2-F_3+...-F_{2n-1}+F_{2n}\), where \(n\) is a positive integer.
