x=\frac{-{\color{#e8710a}{b}} \pm \sqrt{{\color{#e8710a}{b}}^{2}-4{\color{#c92786}{a}}{\color{#129eaf}{c}}}}{2{\color{#c92786}{a}}}
x=2a−b±b2−4ac
Once in standard form, identify a, b, and c from the original equation and plug them into the quadratic formula.

Base case: if <em>n</em> = 1, then
1² - 1 = 0
which is even.
Induction hypothesis: assume the statement is true for <em>n</em> = <em>k</em>, namely that <em>k</em> ² - <em>k</em> is even. This means that <em>k</em> ² - <em>k</em> = 2<em>m</em> for some integer <em>m</em>.
Induction step: show that the assumption implies (<em>k</em> + 1)² - (<em>k</em> + 1) is also even. We have
(<em>k</em> + 1)² - (<em>k</em> + 1) = <em>k</em> ² + 2<em>k</em> + 1 - <em>k</em> - 1
… = (<em>k</em> ² - <em>k</em>) + 2<em>k</em>
… = 2<em>m</em> + 2<em>k</em>
… = 2 (<em>m</em> + <em>k</em>)
which is clearly even. QED
