Question
8.Suppose p is a prime and that f and g are monic polynomials over Z, (that is, the leading coefficients are 1) of degree m, and that the congruence f(x)
= g(x) mod p has at least m distinct solutions mod p. Show that the polynomials are identical. Use this to prove Wilson's Theorem, that if p is an odd prime then (p-1)! = -1 mod p.
