If n=1, then

n(n+1)(2n+1)=1\cdot2\cdot3=6

which is of course divisible by 6.

Assume the claim holds for n=k. Then if n=k+1, we have

(k+1)(k+2)(2k+3)=\underbrace{k(k+1)(2k+1)}+k(2k+3)+(k+2)(2k+3)+2k(k+1)

(I use the distributive property of multiplication to extract the first term, which we've assumed is divisible by 6)

The claim holds for n=k+1 if

k(2k+3)+(k+2)(2k+3)+2k(k+1)

is also divisible by 6. With some manipulation we can express this as

(2k+2)(2k+3)+2k(k+1)

(k+1)(2(2k+3)+2k)

(k+1)(6k+6)

6(k+1)^2

which is clearly divisible by 6, so the claim is true for n=k+1, and this completes the proof (by induction).

How many different six-digit decimal numbers can be formed where the first digit is a 1 or the last digit is a 5?
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

10000 different numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

The numbers will have the form 1XXXX5, in this case, the order is important because 123465 is a different number to 123645. To know the total of differents decimal numbers, use the formula of permutation with repetition:

n^r

n is the number of options, n=10, and r the number of times you have to place a digit, r=4.

10^4=10000
