Now that you have practiced the basic algorithm, let’s study the stable marriage problem a little bit quantitavely. here we define the following notation: on day j, let pj(m) be the rank of the woman that man m proposes to (where the first woman on his list has rank 1 and the last has rank n). also, let rj(w) be the total number of men that woman w has rejected up through day j − 1 (i. e. not including the proposals on day j). answer the following questions using the notation above.(a) prove or disprove the following claim: ∑m pj(m)−∑w rj(w) is independent of j. if it is true, also give the value of ∑m pj(m)−∑w rj(w). the notation, ∑m and ∑w , simply means that we are summing over all men and all women.(b) prove or disprove the following claim: one of the men or women must be matched to someone who is ranked in the top half of their preference list. you may assume that n is even.

Evaluate 8x2 + 9x − 1 2x3 + 3x2 − 2x dx. solution since the degree of the numerator is less than the degree of the denominator, we don't need to divide. we factor the denominator as 2x3 + 3x2 − 2x = x(2x2 + 3x − 2) = x(2x − 1)(x + 2). since the denominator has three distinct linear factors, the partial fraction decomposition of the integrand has the form† 8x2 + 9x − 1 x(2x − 1)(x + 2) = correct: your answer is correct. to determine the values of a, b, and c, we multiply both sides of this equation by the product of the denominators, x(2x − 1)(x + 2), obtaining 8x2 + 9x − 1 = a correct: your answer is correct. (x + 2) + bx(x + 2) + cx(2x − 1).
