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).

To create voltage in a battery, you need a difference in potential between compounds. What is the difference between the zinc po
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

  -1.17 volts

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between "a" and "b" generally means "a-b". Here, the difference between the potentials is ...

  -0.41 V - 0.76 V = -1.17 V

_____

Sometimes, when we talk about the difference, we mean the positive difference. If that is what is intended here, it is 1.17 volts.

) find a vector parallel to the line of intersection of the planes 5x − y − 6z = 0 and x + y + z = 1.
snow_tiger [21]
The cross product of the normal vectors of two planes result in a vector parallel to the line of intersection of the two planes.

Corresponding normal vectors of the planes are
<5,-1,-6> and <1,1,1>

We calculate the cross product as a determinant of (i,j,k) and the normal products

    i   j   k
   5 -1 -6
   1  1  1

=(-1*1-(-6)*1)i -(5*1-(-6)1)j+(5*1-(-1*1))k
=5i-11j+6k
=<5,-11,6>

Check orthogonality with normal vectors using scalar products
(should equal zero if orthogonal)
<5,-11,6>.<5,-1,-6>=25+11-36=0
<5,-11,6>.<1,1,1>=5-11+6=0

Therefore <5,-11,6> is a vector parallel to the line of intersection of the two given planes.
