QUESTION 12
(a) Aim to prove that 23n 2 3n is divisible by 5 for n $ 1.
When n = 1,
23 2 31 = 8 2 3 = 5
So it is true for n = 1.
Assume true for n = k.
i.e. assume 23k 2 3k = 5m
If n = k 1 1,
23(k + 1) 2 3k + 1 = 23k+3 2 3k+1
= 23k.23 2 3k.31
= 8(23k) 2 3(3k)= (5 1 3)(23k) 2 3(3k)= 5(23k) 1 3(23k) 2 3(3k)= 5(23k) 1 3(23k 2 3k)= 5(23k) 1 3(5m)= 5(23k 1 3m)
So, if true for n = k it is also true for n = k 1 1.
It is true for n = 1, so it is true forn = 1 1 1 = 2, so it is true for n = 2 1 1 = 3 and so on.
By the process of induction, 23n 2 3n is divisible by 5 for all integers n greater than or equal to 1. (3 marks)
