Use induction to prove: For every integer n > 1, the number n5 - n is a multiple of 5.

nignag [31]

Answer:

we need to prove : for every integer n>1, the number $n^{5}-n$ is a multiple of 5.

1) check divisibility for n=1, $f(1)=(1)^{5}-1=0$ (divisible)

2) Assume that $f(k)$ is divisible by 5, $f(k)=(k)^{5}-k$

3) Induction,

$f(k+1)=(k+1)^{5}-(k+1)$

$=(k^{5}+5k^{4}+10k^{3}+10k^{2}+5k+1)-k-1$

$=k^{5}+5k^{4}+10k^{3}+10k^{2}+4k$

Now, $f(k+1)-f(k)$

$f(k+1)-f(k)=k^{5}+5k^{4}+10k^{3}+10k^{2}+4k-(k^{5}-k)$

$f(k+1)-f(k)=k^{5}+5k^{4}+10k^{3}+10k^{2}+4k-k^{5}+k$

$f(k+1)-f(k)=5k^{4}+10k^{3}+10k^{2}+5k$

Take out the common factor,

$f(k+1)-f(k)=5(k^{4}+2k^{3}+2k^{2}+k)$ (divisible by 5)

add both the sides by f(k)

$f(k+1)=f(k)+5(k^{4}+2k^{3}+2k^{2}+k)$

We have proved that difference between $f(k+1)$ and $f(k)$ is divisible by 5.

so, our assumption in step 2 is correct.

Since $f(k)$ is divisible by 5, then $f(k+1)$ must be divisible by 5 since we are taking the sum of 2 terms that are divisible by 5.

Therefore, for every integer n>1, the number $n^{5}-n$ is a multiple of 5.

In the 30-60-90 triangle below, side s has a length of _ and side q has a length of _.

gregori [183]

Answer: F

Step-by-step explanation:

For a 30-60-90 triangle, we know that the hypotenuse is 2x. Since we know the hypotenuse is 10, we can solve for x.

2x=10

x=5

Now that we know x is 5, we can use this to solve for s and q. The side across from 30° is just x. Since we know x, s is 5.

The side across from 60° is x√3. Since we know what x is, we can just plug in. q is 5√3.

Find the midpoint of the line segment joining the points P1 and P2.

ludmilkaskok [199]

Formula for midpoint between two points is M(x,y)

x=(x1+x2)/2 and y=(y1+y2)/2

In our case (x1,y1)=(m,b) and (x2,y2)=(0,0)

x=(m+0)/2=m/2 and y=(b+0)/2=b/2 M(m/2,b/2)

Good luck!!!
