**Chapter 2, Exercise 8.5:** A finite group contains an element \( x \) of order 10 and also an element \( y \) of order 6. What can be said about the order of \( G \)?

**Chapter 2, Exercise 8.7:** A group \( G \) of order 22 contains elements \( x \) and \( y \), where \( x \neq 1 \) and \( y \) is not a power of \( x \). Prove that the subgroup generated by these elements is the whole group \( G \).
