How to Show that $[2]_6$ and $[3]_9$ are disjoint

I’m not sure how to prove this. Specifically, I don’t fully understand congruence class modulo m to prove these sets are disjoint.

          Or $ nequiv 2pmod{!6},Rightarrow, nequiv color{#0a0}2pmod{!3} $ by $ 2+6j = 2+3(2j)$

            $[2]_6$ is the set of all integers which have $2$ as remainder when divided by $6$, and $[3]_9$ is the set of all integers which have $3$ as remainder when divided by $9$. So an integer $x$ in both congruence classes could be written as
            $$x=2+6k=3+9ell$$
            which implies $$3-2=1=6k-9ell.$$
            Can you why there is a problem?

            $begingroup$

            You can think of the congruence class modulo $m$ to be the set of numbers with remainder $n$ when divided by $m$ (where $n<m$).



            Once you have that, no integer can have two different remainders, then it must be in at most one of these sets, maybe neither.

              If I understand your notation, $[2]_6$ consists of all the numbers congruent to $2$ modulo $6$. Those are the numbers that leave a remainder of $2$ when you divide by $6$, so
              $$
              [2]_6 = { ldots , -10, -4, 2, 8, 14, ldots}.
              $$
              Can you finish now? Write down $[3]_6$ and check whether it and ${2}_6$ have any numbers in common.

                Well write that one down and see if it overlaps $[2]_6$.

                              If I understand your notation, $[2]_6$ consists of all the numbers congruent to $2$ modulo $6$. Those are the numbers that leave a remainder of $2$ when you divide by $6$, so
                              $$
                              [2]_6 = { ldots , -10, -4, 2, 8, 14, ldots}.
                              $$
                              Can you finish now? Write down $[3]_6$ and check whether it and ${2}_6$ have any numbers in common.

                              How to change which sound is reproduced for terminal bell?

                              Image
                              3 Recently upgrade to 18.10 from 18.04, and using the terminal is becoming annoying: the new alert sound is a drip ( /usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/drip.ogg ), and the previous one is still located at ( /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg ). My issue is that at the gnome-terminal, when autocompleting or pressing left BOTH sounds are reproduced, at the same time. I want to just have ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg active, not both . At the moment I have been only able to reduce the volume of the alerts (but still both are played), or turn the alerts down (but I dislike both "solutions"). gnome-terminal 18.10 teminal-bell share | improve this question ...

                              Title Spacing in Bjornstrup Chapter, Removing Chapter Number From Contents

                              Image
                              up vote 5 down vote favorite 2 I would like to make it so that the vertical space below the title of each chapter is the same when using the Bjornstrup package (i.e. so that the descenders do not affect the spacing - as shown by the red arrow in the picture below). I think I'm fairly happy with the spacing around "A chapter", so I'd really like titles without descenders (e.g. "Contents") to have the same vertical spacing as "A chapter" below the title. I would also like to remove the large "0" in the contents title. Any help appreciated, as always. documentclass[11pt,a4paper]{book} % Packages[![enter image description here][1]][1] usepackage[left=3.5cm, right=3.5cm, top=4.3cm, bottom=4.25cm]{geometry} usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} usepackage{libertine} usepackage[libertine]{newtx...
