Prove the following statement by mathematical induction.
For every integer n 2 0,
n+1
i- 2' = n· 2n +
2+2.
i = 1
Proof (by mathematical induction): Let P(n) be the equation
n +1
si.2' = n · 2n + 2 + 2.
i = 1
We will show that P(n) is true for every integer n > 0.
Show that P(0) is true: Select P(0) from the choices below.
0 + 1
1. 21 = 1 · 21 + 2 + 2
i = 0
0 + 1
OS i.2' = 0 · 20 + 2 + 2
i = 1
n+1
O5 i.2' = 0 - 20 + 2 + 2
i = 1
O 2 = 0 · 20 + 2+ 2
The selected statement is true because both sides of the equation equal the same quantity.
Show that for each integer k > 0, if P(k) is true, then P(k + 1) is true:
Let k be any integer with k 2 0, and suppose that P(k) is true. Select the expression for the left-hand side of P(k) from the choices below.

[The inductive hypothesis states that the two sides of P(k) are equal.]
(k+1)+1
(k1)+1
(k+1)+1
We must show that P(k + 1) is true. The left-hand side of P(k + 1) is i. 2'. when the final term of S i - 2' is written separately, the result is i. 2' =
The right-hand side of P(k + 1) is
After substitution
from the inductive hypothesis, the left-hand side of P(k + 1) becomes
+ (k + 2)2k + 2
When the left-hand and right-hand sides of P(k + 1) are simplified, they both can be shown to equal
+ 2. Hence P(k + 1) is true, which
completes the inductive step.
[Thus both the basis and the inductive steps have been proved, and so the proof by mathematical induction is complete.]
