1. Sequence
Consider the sequence {a,}nEN where an = 2" – 3".
(a) Write the first five terms of the sequence.
(b) State whether the sequence appears to be (non-)increasing or (non-)decreasing.
(c) Is the sequence an arithmetic progression? Explain.
(d) Is the sequence a geometric progression? Explain.
2. Summation
(a)
Write the sum 50 + 51+52+ ..+ 99 + 100 in summation notation.
(b)
Compute the value
this summation.
3. Weak induction in steps
Let P(n) be the following statement:
1
Σ
n
i(i+1)
i=1
n +1
The following sub-problems guide you through a proof by weak induction that P(n)
holds for all ne Zt.
(a)
In order to understand the claim, verify it by hand for n = 4.
(b)
the base case.
What is the statement P(1)? Show that P(1) is true, which completes
(c)
What is the inductive hypothesis?
(d)
What do you need to prove in the inductive step?
(e)
Complete the inductive step.
