First verify it holds for n=1
then you are allowed to assume it holds for n and you can start with the induction step

for n+1 instead of inserting it into the equation, add it to both sides and transform it to the original formula to proof its equality

1^{2}+2^{2}+3^{2}+...+n^{2}+(n+1)^{2}=\frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6} +(n+1)^{2} \\ =\frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)+6(n+1)^{2} }{6}\\ =\frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)+6(n+1)(n+1)}{6}\\ =\frac{(n+1)(n(2n+1)+6(n+1))}{6}\\ =\frac{(n+1)((2n^{2}+n)+6(n+1))}{6}\\ =\frac{(n+1)(2n^{2}+7n+6)}{6}\\ =\frac{(n+1)(n+2)(2n+3)}{6}\\ =\frac{(n+1)((n+1)+1)(2(n+1)+1)}{6}

this equals the original formula if you had inserted n+1, proving the correctness

Which shows the first step in the solution to the<br> equation log₂x + log₂(x - 6) = 4?
iren [92.7K]

log was used calculate big numbers before calculators

log is a re-arranged way to show a number with an exponent

example

log₂ 16 = 4 means 2^4 = 16

logx(Z) = y means x^y=Z

log(x-6)/log(2) + log(x)/log(2) = 4

(log(x-6)+ log(x))/log(2) = 4

(log(x-6)+ log(x)) = 4log(2)

(log(x-6)x) = log(16)

x=8

santosh is four more than three times the age of his cousin. if santosh is 49 years old, then what is the age of his cousin?
andrezito [222]
Santosh's cousin is 15 years old because 49-4=45. Divide 45 by 3 and the quotient is 15. To check: 15 times 3= 45. Add 4 and the sum is 49.
