$a_k = 7a_{k - 1}$ for each integer $k \geq 2$. Show that
|
||||
$a_n = 3 \cdot 7^{n - 1}$ for every integer $n \geq 1$.
|
||||
|
||||
**Proof (by mathematical induction):**
|
||||
|
||||
Let $P(n)$ be the statement:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ a_n = 3 \cdot 7^{n - 1} $$
|
||||
|
||||
_Basis Step:_
|
||||
|
||||
Prove $P(1)$. That is:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ a_1 = 3 \cdot 7^{1 - 1} $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ = 3 \cdot 7^{0} $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ = 3 \cdot 1 $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ = 3 $$
|
||||
|
||||
Since $a_1 = 3$ is defined in the problem statement, this equality is true.
|
||||
|
||||
Therefore $P(1)$ is true.
|
||||
|
||||
_Inductive _Step:_
|
||||
|
||||
Let $k$ be any integer such that $k \geq 1$.
|
||||
|
||||
Suppose $P(k)$. That is:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ a_k = 3 \cdot 7^{k - 1} $$
|
||||
|
||||
This is the inductive hypothesis.
|
||||
|
||||
Prove $P(k + 1)$. That is:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ a_{k + 1} = 3 \cdot 7^{(k + 1) - 1} $$
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ a_{k + 1} = 3 \cdot 7^k $$
|
||||
|
||||
By the definition of the given sequence:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ a_{k + 1} = 7a_k $$
|
||||
|
||||
By the inductive hypothesis:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ = 7(3 \cdot 7^{k - 1}) $$
|
||||
|
||||
By the laws of exponents:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ = 3 \cdot 7^k $$
|
||||
|
||||
And this is the right-hand side of the equality to be shown.

25. A sequence $b_0, b_1, b_2, \dots$ is defined by letting $b_0 = 5$ and
|
||||
$b_k = 4 + b_{k - 1}$ for each integer $k \geq 1$. Show that $b_n > 4n$ for
|
||||
every integer $n \geq 0$.
|
||||
|
||||
**Proof (by mathematical induction):**
|
||||
|
||||
Let $P(n)$ be the inequality:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ b_n > 4n $$
|
||||
|
||||
_Basis Step:_
|
||||
|
||||
Prove $P(0)$. That is:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ b_0 > 4(0) $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ 5 > 4(0) $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ 5 > 0 $$
|
||||
|
||||
This inequality holds. Therefore $P(0)$ is true.
|
||||
|
||||
_Inductive Step:_
|
||||
|
||||
Let $k$ be any integer where $k \geq 0$.
|
||||
|
||||
Suppose $P(k)$. That is:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ b_k > 4k $$
|
||||
|
||||
This is the inductive hypothesis.
|
||||
|
||||
Prove $P(k + 1)$. That is:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ b_{k + 1} > 4(k + 1) $$
|
||||
|
||||
By the definition of the sequence:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ b_{k + 1} = 4 + b_k $$
|
||||
|
||||
By the inductive hypothesis:
|
||||
|

$$ > 4 + 4k $$
|
||||
|

$$ > 4(1 + k) $$

26. A sequence $c_0, c_1, c_2, \dots$ is defined by letting $c_0 = 3$ and
|
||||
$c_k = (c_{k - 1})^2$ for every integer $k \geq 1$. Show that $c_n = 3^{2n}$
|
||||
for each integer $n \geq 0$.
|
||||
|
||||
**Proof (by mathematical induction):**
|
||||
|
||||
Let $P(n)$ be the equality:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ c_n = 3^{2n} $$
|
||||
|
||||
_Basis Step:_
|
||||
|
||||
Prove $P(0)$. That is:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ c_0 = 3^{2(0)} $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ c_0 = 3^{0} $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ c_0 = 1 $$
|
||||
|

Stopping here. It is likely Epp has a typo, she means $c_n = 3^{2^n}$, not
|

$c_n = 3^{2n}$.

||||
27. A sequence $d_1, d_2, d_3, \dots$ is defined by letting $d_1 = 2$ and
|
||||
$d_k = \dfrac{d_{k - 1}}{k}$ for each integer $k \geq 2$. Show that for
|
||||
every integer $n \geq 1$, $d_n = \dfrac{2}{n!}$.
|
||||
|
||||
**Proof (by mathematical induction):**
|
||||
|
||||
Let $P(n)$ be the equation:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ d_n = \frac{2}{n!} $$
|
||||
|
||||
_Basis Step:_
|
||||
|
||||
Prove $P(1)$. That is:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ d_1 = \frac{2}{1!} $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ d_1 = \frac{2}{1} $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ d_1 = 2 $$
|
||||
|
||||
Since the problem statement states that $d_1 = 2$, this matches our equality.
|
||||
|
||||
Therefore $P(1)$ is true.
|
||||
|
||||
_Inductive Step:_
|
||||
|
||||
Let $k$ be any integer such that $k \geq 1$.
|
||||
|
||||
Suppose $P(k)$, that is:
|

$$ d_k = \frac{2}{k!} $$
|

|

This is the inductive hypothesis.
|
||||

Prove $P(k + 1)$, that is:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ d_{k + 1} = \frac{2}{(k + 1)!} $$
|
||||
|
||||
By the given sequence:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ d_{k + 1} = \frac{d_k}{k + 1} $$
|
||||
|
||||
By the inductive hypothesis:
|
||||
|

$$ = \frac{2}{(k + 1)k!} $$

$$ = \frac{2}{(k + 1)!} $$

28. Prove that for every integer $n \geq 1$,

|
||||
$$ \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 + 3 + 5 + \dots + (2n - 1)}{(2n + 1)(2n + 3) + \dots + (2n + (2n - 1))} $$
|

$$ \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 + 3 + 5 + \dots + (2n - 1)}{(2n + 1) + (2n + 3) + \dots + (2n + (2n - 1))} $$
|
||||
|
||||
**Proof (by mathematical induction):**
|
||||
|
||||
Let $P(n)$ be the equality:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 + 3 + 5 + \dots + (2n - 1)}{(2n + 1) + (2n + 3) + \dots + (2n + (2n - 1))} $$
|
||||
|
||||
_Basis Step:_
|
||||
|
||||
Prove $P(1)$, that is:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 + 3 + 5 + \dots + (2(1) - 1)}{(2(1) + 1) + (2(1) + 3) + \dots + (2(1) + (2(1) - 1))} $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 + 3 + 5 + \dots + (2 - 1)}{(2 + 1) + (2 + 3) + \dots + (2 + (2 - 1))} $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 + 3 + 5 + \dots + 1}{(2 + 1) + (2 + 3) + \dots + (2 + 1)} $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{(2 + 1) + (2 + 3) + \dots + 3} $$
|
||||
|
||||
$$ \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{3} $$
|
||||
|
||||
Therefore $P(1)$ is true.

_Inductive Step:_

Let $k$ be any integer where $k \geq 1$.

Suppose $P(k)$, that is:

$$ \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 + 3 + 5 + \dots + (2k - 1)}{(2k + 1) + (2k + 3) + \dots + (2k + (2k - 1))} $$
|

This is the inductive hypothesis.

Prove $P(k + 1)$, that is:

$$ \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 + 3 + 5 + \dots + (2(k + 1) - 1)}{(2(k + 1) + 1) + (2(k + 1) + 3) + \dots + (2(k + 1) + (2(k + 1) - 1))} $$
|

|

Starting from the inductive hypothesis:

|

$$ \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 + 3 + 5 + \dots + (2k - 1)}{(2k + 1) + (2k + 3) + \dots + (2k + (2k - 1))} $$

**Proof (by mathematical induction):**

Suppose a set $L$ consists of strings by juxtaposing one or more of _abb_,
|

_bab_, and _bba_.

||||
|

Let $P(n)$ be the sentence:
|

|

If a string $s$ in $L$ has length $3n$, then $s$ contains an even number of
|
||||
_b_'s.
|
||||
|
||||
_Basis Step:_
|
||||
|
||||
Prove $P(1)$, that is:
|
||||
|
||||
If a string $s$ in $L$ has length $3(1)$, then $s$ contains an even number of
|
||||
_b_'s.
|
||||
|
||||
Since:
|
||||
|
||||
$$ L = \{\text{abb}, \text{bab}, \text{bba}\} $$
|
||||
|
||||
All three string $s$ in $L$ have a length of $3$ and all of them have an even
|
||||
number of _b_'s.
|
||||
|
||||
Therefore $P(1)$ is true.
|
||||
|
||||
_Inductive Step:_
|
||||
|
||||
Let $k$ be any integer where $k \geq 1$.
|
||||
|
||||
Suppose $P(k)$, that is:
|
||||
|
||||
If a string $s$ in $L$ has length $3k$, then $s$ contains an even number of
|

_b_'s.
|

|

This is the inductive hypothesis.
|

Prove $P(k + 1)$, that is:
|
||||
|
||||
If a string $s$ in $L$ has length $3(k + 1)$, then $s$ contains an even number
|
||||
of _b_'s.
|
||||
|
||||
Now $3(k + 1) = 3k + 3$ and the strings in $L$ are obtained by juxtaposing
|
||||
strings already in $L$ with one of _abb_, _bab_, or _bba_. Thus, either the
|
||||
initial or the final three characters in $s$ are _abb_, _bab_, or _bba_.
|
||||
Moreoever, the other $3k$ characters in $s$ are also in $L$ by definition of
|
||||
$L$, and so, by the inductive hypothesis, the other $3k$ characters in $s$
|
||||
contain an even number, say $m$, of _b_'s. Because each of _abb_, _bab_, and
|
||||
_bba_ contains 2 _b_'s, the total number of _b_'s in $s$ is $m + 2$, which is a
|

sum of even integers and hence is even.

30. A set $S$ consists of strings obtained by juxtaposing one or more copies of
|
||||
1110 and 0111. Use mathematical induction to prove that for every integer
|
||||
$n \geq 1$, if a string $s$ in $S$ has a length $4n$, then the number of 1's
|
||||
in $s$ is a multiple of 3.
|
||||
|
||||
**Proof (by mathematical induction):**
|
||||
|
||||
Suppose a set $S$ contains strings obtained by juxtaposing one or more copies of
|
||||
1110 and 0111.
|
||||
|
||||
Let $P(n)$ be the sentence:
|
||||
|
||||
If a string $s$ in $S$ has length $4n$, then the number of $1$'s in $s$ is a
|
||||
multiple of $3$.
|
||||
|
||||
_Basis Step:_
|
||||
|
||||
Prove $P(1)$, that is:
|
||||
|
||||
If a string $s$ in $S$ has length $4(1)$, then the number of $1$'s in $s$ is a
|
||||
multiple of $3$.
|
||||
|
||||
Since $S$ consists only of strings obtained by juxtaposing 1110 and 0111, then
|
||||
at a minimum, the strings in $S$ must have a length of $4$. This means that the
|
||||
only two strings in $S$ that have a length of $4$ are 1110 and 0111. The number
|
||||
of $1$'s in $s$ is a multiple of $3$ in both cases.
|
||||
|
||||
Therefore $P(1)$ is true.
|
||||
|
||||
_Inductive Step:_
|
||||
|
||||
Let $k$ be any integer where $k \geq 1$.
|
||||
|
||||
Suppose $P(k)$, that is:
|
||||
|
||||
If a string $s$ in $S$ has length $4k$, then the number of $1$'s in $s$ is a
|
||||
multiple of $3$.
|
||||
|
||||
This is the inductive hypothesis.
|
||||
|
||||
Prove $P(k + 1)$, that is:
|
||||
|
||||
If a string $s$ in $S$ has length $4(k + 1)$, then the number of $1$'s in $s$ is
|
||||
a multiple of $3$.
|
||||
|
||||
Now $4(k + 1) = 4k + 4$ and the strings in $S$ are obtained by juxtaposing
|
||||
strings already in $S$ with one of 1110 or 0111. Thus, the number of $1$'s is a
|
||||
multiple of $3$ in both cases. Moreover, the other $4k$ digits in $s$ are also
|
||||
in $S$ by the definition of $S$, and so, by inductive hypothesis, the other $4k$
|
||||
characters in $s$ contain an odd number, say $m$ of $1$'s. Because each of 1110
|
||||
and 0111 contain 3 $1$'s, the total number of $1$'s in $s$ is $m + 1$, which is

the sum of odd integers and hence is odd.
