Use the proof type strong mathematical induction to prove that every positive integer greater than one is divisible by at least one prime number. That is, prove that the following formal statement is true, Vn E Z*, n> 1, 3p e Z*, p prime | (p | n) Half the points for this problem will be granted only if you show the correct form of the proof type. That is, showing formal start and end statements, explicitly proving any needed basis case, explicitly proving the strong mathematical induction step, and explicitly asserting that the requirements for strong mathematical induction have been met before you conclude the proof. You can use the Canvas math editor or English language sentences. You must use the 2-column statement/justification format for your proof. Every statement must be justified. I will be looking for the use of formal definitions of prime number, composite number, and divisibility in your proof.

1.) Mathematical induction is useful in determining whether the statement REMAINS TRUE with any natural number as k. Is the statement TRUE or FALSE? 2.) We have only one (1) step that we may utilize in Mathematical induction – the Inductive step. Is this statement TRUE or FALSE? a. Underline only the PART that makes the following statement erroneous: "The Basis step helps in determining whether the first iteration of the statement, which is P(k+10), is TRUE." 3.) In a statement in Mathematical induction, we may only use positive integers or natural numbers for k. Is this statement TRUE or FALSE? 4.) We use k and k+1 for the Inductive step and Basis step respectively. Is this statement TRUE or FALSE? 5.)

If the contradiction method is used to prove the assertion "For any positive integer n > 0, if a" is even, then a is even.", then a valid implementation of that method begins by assuming that the negation of the statement is true. Choose all of the following statements that correctly express the negation of the above assertion. Vn E N – {0}, rem(a?, 2) = 0 → rem(a, 2) = 0 Vn EN – {0}, rem(a², 2) = 0 rem(a, 2) = 1 En e N – {0}, rem(a?, 2) = 0 → rem(a, 2) In eN - {0}, rem(a², 2) = 0 ^ rem(a, 2) = 1 For any positive integer n > 0, if a" is even, then a is odd. There exists a positive integer n > 0 where a" is even implies that a is od. There exists a positive integer n > 0 where a" is even and a is odd.
