Answer:

P(3) is true since 2(3) - 1 = 5  < 3! = 6.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P(n) be the proposition that 2n-1 ≤ n!. for n ≥ 3

Basis: P(3) is true since 2(3) - 1 = 5  < 3! = 6.  

Inductive Step: Assume P(k) holds, i.e., 2k - 1 ≤ k! for an arbitrary integer k ≥ 3. To show that P(k + 1) holds:

2(k+1) - 1 = 2k + 2 - 1

≤ 2 + k! (by the inductive hypothesis)

= (k + 1)! Therefore,2n-1 ≤ n! holds, for every integer n ≥ 3.

Solve 2x + 5y = −13 3x − 4y = −8
zlopas [31]
If you would like to solve 2x + 5y = -13 and 3x - 4y = -8, you can do this using the following steps:

2x + 5y = -13       /*4
3x - 4y = -8         /*5
_______________
8x + 20y = -52
15x - 20y = -40
_______________
8x + 15x + 20y - 20y = -52 - 40
23x = -92
x = -92 / 23
x = -4

<span>3x - 4y = -8 
</span>3 * (-4) - 4y = -8
-12 - 4y = -8
12 + 4y = 8
4y = 8 -12
4y = -4
y = -1

The correct result would be x = -4 and y = -1.
