etimes ire cannot use mathematical induction to prove a result we believe to be true, but ire can use mathematical induction to prove a stronger result. Because the inductive hypothesis of the stronger result provides more to work with, this process is calledinductive loading.We use inductive loading in Exercise 74-76.
74.Show that we cannot use mathematical induction to prove thatI. lk for all positiveintegers n, but that this inequality is a consequence of the
inequality proved by mathematical induction in Exercise 19.
