8.34. Let p be a prime and F a field with p² elements. Show that F cannot have more than one proper subfield.
Inverse Normal Distribution
The method used for finding the corresponding z-critical value in a normal distribution using the known probability is said to be an inverse normal distribution. The inverse normal distribution is a continuous probability distribution with a family of two parameters.
Mean, Median, Mode
It is a descriptive summary of a data set. It can be defined by using some of the measures. The central tendencies do not provide information regarding individual data from the dataset. However, they give a summary of the data set. The central tendency or measure of central tendency is a central or typical value for a probability distribution.
Z-Scores
A z-score is a unit of measurement used in statistics to describe the position of a raw score in terms of its distance from the mean, measured with reference to standard deviation from the mean. Z-scores are useful in statistics because they allow comparison between two scores that belong to different normal distributions.
How do I show 8.34? Could you explain this in great detail? I was told to use 8.33 to show 8.34 but I am not sure how to do this. I also attached list of definitions and theorems in textbook.
![**Definition 8.8.** Let \( R \) be a commutative ring. Then a nonzero element \( a \in R \) is said to be a **zero divisor** if there exists a nonzero \( b \in R \) such that \( ab = 0 \).
**Example 8.19.** In \( \mathbb{Z}_6 \), we note that 4 is a zero divisor, as \( 4 \cdot 3 = 0 \). On the other hand, 5 is not a zero divisor.
**Example 8.20.** The ring of integers has no zero divisors.
**Definition 8.9.** An **integral domain** is a commutative ring \( R \) with identity \( 1 \neq 0 \) having no zero divisors.
**Example 8.21.** The rings \( \mathbb{Z}, \mathbb{Q}, \mathbb{R} \) and \( \mathbb{C} \) are all integral domains.
**Example 8.22.** The polynomial ring \( \mathbb{R}[x] \) is an integral domain. Indeed, we know that it is a commutative ring with identity. Also, if \( f(x) = a_0 + a_1x + \cdots + a_nx^n \) and \( g(x) = b_0 + b_1x + \cdots + b_mx^m \), with \( a_i, b_i \in R \) and \( a_n \neq 0 \ne b_m \), then the unique term of highest degree in \( f(x)g(x) \) is \( a_nb_mx^{m+n} \). As \( R \) is an integral domain, \( a_nb_m \neq 0 \). Thus, \( f(x)g(x) \) is not the zero polynomial.
**Example 8.23.** The rings \( \mathbb{Z}\mathbb{Z}, \mathbb{Z}_6 \) and \( M_2(\mathbb{R}) \) all fail to be integral domains. The first lacks an identity, the second has zero divisors and the third is not commutative.
