(a) For all a, b E Z, prove that a³b²-ab is even. (b) Let V = {0, 1, 2, 3, ..., 13}. Draw the graph G = (V, E) where {s, t} E E if and only if 7 | (st) or 7| (s+t). (c) Prove that in any set of four integers, there exists a pair a, b such that 14 | (a³b²-ab4). [Hint: Factor the expression. Consider integers modulo n, which n would be relevant? What information can be gathered from the connected components of the above graph?]
