### Number Theory Problem Set

#### Problem 2: Prime Number \( p = 31 \)

##### (a) Prove that \(\gcd(7, 31) = 1\)

- **Objective:** Compute integers \(x\) and \(y\) such that:
  \[
  7x + 31y = 1
  \]
- **Objective:** Compute integers \(u\) and \(v\) such that:
  \[
  7u + 30v = 1
  \]

##### (b) Compute the smallest positive integer \(d\)

- **Given:** \(e = 7\)
- **Objective:** Find the smallest positive integer \(d\) such that:
  \[
  de \equiv 1 \pmod{p-1}
  \]
  Equivalently,
  \[
  7d \equiv 1 \pmod{30}
  \]

##### (c) Compute the smallest positive integer \(x\)

- **Objective:** Find the smallest positive integer \(x\) such that:
  \[
  x^7 \equiv 24 \pmod{31}
  \]

##### (d) Determine the primitiveness of roots modulo 31

- **Objective:** Prove the following:
  - \(g = 2\) is not a primitive root modulo 31.
  - \(g = 3\) is a primitive root modulo 31.
  - Determine if \(g = 5\) is a primitive root modulo 31.

##### (e) Compute discrete logarithms

- **Objective:** For \(p = 31\), compute the discrete logarithms:
  \[
  \log_3{(17)} \quad \text{and} \quad \log_3{(2)}
  \]
