False, because it would no longer be 18 alone because of the disturbutive property.
The base case is the claim that

which reduces to

which is true.
Assume that the inequality holds for <em>n</em> = <em>k </em>; that

We want to show if this is true, then the equality also holds for <em>n</em> = <em>k</em> + 1 ; that

By the induction hypothesis,

Now compare this to the upper bound we seek:

because

in turn because

<h3>Answers:</h3><h3>Area of parallelogram = 63</h3><h3>Area of triangle = 34</h3><h3>Area of trapezoid = 84</h3><h3>The trapezoid has the largest area</h3>
==================================================
Work Shown:
area of parallelogram = base*height
area of parallelogram = 9*7
area of parallelogram = 63
----------
area of triangle = (1/2)*base*height
area of triangle = (1/2)*10*6.8
area of triangle = 34
----------
area of trapezoid = height*(base1+base2)/2
area of trapezoid = 6*(13+15)/2
area of trapezoid = 6*(28)/2
area of trapezoid = 168/2
area of trapezoid = 84
