To prove the statement \( \sum_{r=0}^{n} r \binom{n}{r} = n \cdot 2^{n-1} \) for all \( n \in \mathbb{N} \) using mathematical induction, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Base Case We first check the base case when \( n = 1 \). **Left-hand side (LHS):** \[ \sum_{r=0}^{1} r \binom{1}{r} = 0 \cdot \binom{1}{0} + 1 \cdot \binom{1}{1} = 0 + 1 = 1 ...
