1 point Suppose you wanted to prove the following statement by mathematical induction 2 4 6 2n n n 1 for all n 1 What would the first line of a proof by induction be OA Let P n be the statement 2 4 6 2n n n 1 B Let P n 2 4 6 2n C Suppose P n n n 1 for all n 1 D Assume P n is true for all n 1 E Let P n be the statement 2 4 6 2n n n 1 for all n 1 What would you need to show to establish the base case OA Show that P 1 is true that is that 2 1 1 1 B Show that P 2 is true since the sum starts with 2 OC Show that 2 4 6 2n P 1 D Show that P 0 P 1 and P 2 are true E There is no need to establish a base case since the sum has at least four terms What is the first line of the inductive case for this proof OA Assume P k is true for some arbitrary k 1 that is that 2 4 6 2k k k 1 B Assume P k is true for some large k 1 say that 2 4 6 432 216 217 C Assume P k implies P k 1 for all k z 1 OD Assume P k is true for all kz 1 that is that 2 4 6 2k k k 1 OE Assume P k and P k 1 are both true for an arbitrary k 1 that is that 2 4 6 2k k k 1 and 2 4 6 2k 2k 2 k 1 k 2 www
