Use mathematical induction to prove the statement is true


Use mathematical induction to prove the statement is true for all positive integers, or show why it is false.

a) 4·6 + 5·7 + 6·8 + ... + 4n(4n+2) = 4(4n+1)(8n+7)/6

b) 12 + 42 + 72+ ... + (3n-2)2 = n(6n2-3n-1)/2

For the given statement Pn, write the statement P1, Pk and Pk+1.

c) 2 + 4 + 6 + .. + 2n = n(n+1)
