## Mathematical Exercises

### 1. Compute the following:
   a) \(\prod_{n=2}^{58} (-1)^n\)
   
   b) \(2 + 5 + 8 + 11 + \ldots + 302 + 305\)
   
   c) \(\sum_{i=0}^{100} \frac{i}{1000!}\)
   
   d) \(\frac{1000!}{998!}\)

### 2. For the following recursive functions, find \(f(1)\), \(f(2)\), \(f(3)\), and \(f(4)\):

   \(f(0) = 2\)
   
   \(f(k) = k - (f(k-1))^2\)

   - \(f(1) = 1 - (f(0))^2 = 1 - 4 = -3\)
   
   - \(f(2) = 2 - (f(1))^2 = 2 - (-3)^2 = 5\)
   
   - \(f(3) = 3 - (f(2))^2 = 3 - 25 = -22\)
   
   - \(f(4) = 4 - (f(3))^2 = 4 - (-22)^2 = 4 - 484 = -400\)

### 3. Prove that \(S_n = \frac{n^2 + n}{2}\) is a solution of the recursive relation

   \(S_1 = 1\)
   
   \(S_k = S_{k-1} + k \quad \text{for } k > 1\)

### 4. Using pattern recognition, solve the recursive relation

   a) \(f(0) = 4\)
   
   \(f(k) = 5 + 1.1 f(k-1) \quad \text{for } k > 0\)

   b) Evaluate \(f(10)\)

### 5. Prove: \(n^3 + 5n\) is divisible by 6 for all integer \(n \geq 0\).

### 6. Use mathematical induction to prove that 
   \(2 + 5 + 8 + 11 + \ldots + (3n - 1) = n(
