Prove the following by using the principle of mathematical induction for all `n in N`:`n(n + 1) (n + 5)`is a multiple of 3.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We will prove it by using the formula of mathematical induction for all `n in N`

Let `P(n)=n(n+1)(n+5)=3 d` where `d in N`

For `{n}=1`

`P(1)=1(2)(6)=12` which is divisible by 3

Let `{P}({k})` is true

`P(k)=k(k+1)(k+5)=3 m` where `m in N`

`Rightarrow {k}^{3}+6 {k}^{2}+5 {k}=3 m`
