The correct Answer is:
To determine if the statement \( P(2) : 2^2 > 9 \) is true, we will evaluate it step by step. ### Step 1: Substitute \( n = 2 \) into the expression We start with the expression given in the statement \( P(n) : n^2 > 9 \). We substitute \( n \) with \( 2 \): \[ P(2) : 2^2 > 9 \] ### Step 2: Calculate \( 2^2 \) Now we calculate \( 2^2 \): \[ 2^2 = 4 \] ### Step 3: Compare \( 4 \) with \( 9 \) Next, we compare the result \( 4 \) with \( 9 \): \[ 4 > 9 \] ### Step 4: Determine the truth value The statement \( 4 > 9 \) is false. Therefore, we conclude that: \[ P(2) \text{ is false.} \] ### Final Conclusion Thus, the answer to the question is: \[ \text{No, } P(2) \text{ is not true.} \] ---
