1 2. Establish each of the following for all n ≥ 1 by the Principle of Mathematical Induction. Solution a) S(n): ==‚ S(1): = = =1‚ So S(1) is true. Assume S(k): = Consider S(k+1) = = +=-1+= -1. Hence‚ it follows that S(k)⇒S(k + 1) is true for all n ∈ Z+ by the Principle of Mathematical Induction. b) S( n) for n=1‚ = 2 = 2+(1-1). So S(1) is true. Inductive Step: assume S(k)is true‚ for some (particular) k ∈ Z+—that is‚ assume that =2+(k-1). For n=k+1‚ = + (k+1) = 2+ (k-1)+(k+1)=
