Answer:

Melissa

Step-by-step explanation:

Melissa: 18/20

Tom: 85/100

You need a common denomenater so multiply 18 and 20 by 5:

90/100>85/100

Melissa has the greater mark by 5%

Using the Principle of Mathematical Induction, prove that . n ^2 − n is even for n ≥ 1​
Tamiku [17]

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

To solve this find the common number that can be divided by both and use that number.

In this case, 4 is divisible by both 4 and 12, and thus the final expression would be

4(d + 3e).
