Prove by induction that for n N, n2 + n is an even integer (n 1)
n = 1, n2 + n = 2 is an even integer
Let for n = k, k2 + k is even
Now for n = k + 1.
(k + 1)2 + (k + 1) - (k2 + k)
= k2 + 2k + 1 + k + 1 - k2 - k = 2k + 2
which is even integer, also k2 + k is integer
Hence (k + 1)2 + (k + 1) is also an even integer.
Hence n2 + n is even integer for all n N.
A particle is moving in a straight line. At time t, the distance between the particle from its starting point is given by x = t - 6t2 + t3. Its acceleration will be zero at
t = 1 unit time
t = 2 unit time
t = 3 unit time
t = 4 unit time
The value of 2, 6, 10 ... (4n - 6)(4n - 2) is equal to
C(2n, n)
(n + 1)(n + 2)(n + 3) ... (2n)
n! P (2n, n)
None of above
