2. Prove, by Mathematical Induction, that for all positive integers n, (2n3+n) is divisible by 3. [96-P2-Q4] [Solution] Let P be the proposition that (2n3 + n) is divisible by 3. When n = 1, 2(1)3 + (1) = 3 which is divisible by 3. P is true for n = 1. Assume P is true for n = k, where k is an integer ie. 2k3 + k = 3N where N is a natural number 3 then 2(k+1) + (k+1) = 2k3 + 6k2 + 6k + 2 + k + 1 = (2k3 + k) + (6k2 + 6k + 3) = 3N + 3(2k2 + 2k + 1) = 3(N + 2k2 + 2k + 1) Since k is a positive integer, (N + 2k2 + 2k + 1) is also a positive integer. ie. 2(k+1)3 + (k+1) is divisible by 3. Hence, P is true for n = k+1 if it is true for n = k. By the Principle of Mathematical Induction, P is true for all positive integers n. 3.
