11: I can identify the predicate being used in a proof by mathematical induction and use it to set up a framework of assumptions and conclusions for an induction proof. Below are three statements that can be proven by induction. You do not need to prove these statements! For each one clearly state the predicate involved; state what you would need to prove in the base case; clearly state the induction hypothesis in terms of the language of the proposition...

Let S(n) be a statement parameterized by a positive integer n. Consider a proof that uses strong induction to prove that for all n 4.S(n) is true. The base case proves that S(4), S(5), S(6), S(7), and S(8) are all true. Select the correct expressions to complete the statement of what is assumed and proven in the inductive step. Supposed that for k> (1?),s() is true for everyj in the range 4 through k. Then we will show that (22)...

use proof by induction
Day 1. Consider the inequality n 10000n. Assume the goal is to prove that inequality is true for all positive integers n. A common mistake is to think that checking the inequality for numerous cases is enough to prove that statement is true in every case. First, verify that the inequality holds for n-1,2,-.- ,10. Next, analyze the inequality; is there a positive integer n such that the inequality n 10000n is not true!

Below are three statements that can be proven by induction. You do not need to prove these statements! For each one: clearly state the predicate involved; state what you would need to prove in the base case; clearly state the induction hypothesis in terms of the language of the proposition (i.e., without using notation to represent the predicate); and then clearly state the inductive step in terms of the language of the proposition. 1.
