Prove by induction:

1 + 1/4 + 1/9 +⋯+ 1/?^2 < 2 − 1/?,

for all integers ?>1

Expert Solution

We will use induction on to prove that , for .

Base Step : For ,

As ,

So the statement is true for .

Induction Hypothesis : Suppose the statement is true for that is ,

Induction Step : For ,

, Using induction Hypothesis .

, as .

So , .

That is the statement is true for if we assume it is true for . Also the statement is true for . Hence by induction on the statement is true for all or for all .

Hence , for .

.

1. Use induction to prove that Summation with n terms where i=1 and Summation 3i 2 − 3i + 1 = n^3 for all n ≥ 1. 2. Let X be the set of all natural numbers x with the property that x = 4a + 13b for some natural numbers a and b. For example, 30 ∈ X since 30 = 4(1) + 13(2), but 5 ∈/ X since there’s no way to add 4’s and 13’s together to...
