Prove that 1^3 + 2^3 + · · · + n^3 = (1 + 2 + · · · + n)^2 for every n ∈ N. That is, the sum of the first n perfect cubes is the square of the sum of the first n natural numbers. (As a student, I found it very surprising that the sum of the first n perfect cubes was always a perfect square at all.)

Prove that 3 divides n^3 −n for all n ≥ 1.

a) Prove that n 3 − 91n 2 − 7n − 14 = Ω(n 3 )....

a) Prove that n 3 − 91n 2 − 7n − 14 = Ω(n 3 ). Your answer must clearly specify the constants c and n0. b) Let g(n) = 27n 2 + 18n and let f(n) = 0.5n 2 − 100. Find positive constants n0, c1 and c2 such that c1f(n) ≤ g(n) ≤ c2f(n) for all n ≥ n0. Be sure to explain how you arrived at the constants.
