Explanation of Solution

Give information:

  13+23+33+...+n3=(1+2+3+...+n)2

Formula Used:

Principle of mathematical Induction.

Proof:

It is given that,

  13+23+33+...+n3=(1+2+3+...+n)2

For n=1 the equation becomes,

  n3=n213=1211=1

Thus, statement is true for n=1

Assume that the statement is true for n=k

  13+23+33+...+k3=(1+2+3+...+k)2

Is true for all values of k ,

Prove that statement is true for n=k+1 ,

So,

  13+23+33+...+n3=(1+2+3+...+n)213+23+33+...+(k+1)3=(1+2+3+...+(k+1))2

Since, 13+23+33+...+k3=(1+2+3+...+k)2

The above statement becomes,

  (k(k+1)22)+(k+1)3=((k+1)(k+2)2)2k2(k+1)24+(k+1)3=((k+1)(k+2)2)2

Take least common multiple to the left hand side,

  (k2(k+1)24+(k+1)3)=((k+1)(k+2)2)2

Take common term outside the other terms,

  ((k+1)2(k2+4(k+1))4)=((k+1)(k+2)2)2((k+1)2(k2+4k+4)4)=((k+1)(k+2)2)2

Factorize the second term in the numerator of the left hand side,

  (k+1)2(k+2)24=((k+1)2(k+2)22)2((k+1)(k+2)2)=((k+1)(k+2)2)2

Thus left hand side is equal to the right hand side.

Therefore, the statement is true for all positive integers n .

Therefore, by principle of mathematical induction P(n) is true for all positive integers n
