PROOFS:
Use these theorems and others to prove these statements.
Theorem 1: The sum of two rational numbers is rational.
Theorem 2: The product of two rational numbers is rational.
Theorem 3: √ 2 is irrational.
Induction:
- Prove that 6 divides n 3 − n for any n ≥ 0
- Use strong induction to prove that every positive integer n can be written as the sum of distinct powers of 2. That is, prove that there exists a set of distinct integers, {k1, k2, . . . , km} where m ≥ 1, such that n = 2^(k1) + 2^(k2) + . . . + 2^(km).

Use strong induction to show that every positive integer can be written as a sum of distinct powers of two (i.e., 20 = 1; 21 = 2; 22 =4; 23 = 8; 24 = 16; :). For example: 19 = 16 + 2 + 1 = 2^4 + 2^1 + 2^0 Hint: For the inductive step, separately consider the case where k +1 is even and where it is odd. When it is even, note that (k + 1)=2 is...
