If P(n) stands for the statement n(n+1)...

`If P(n) stands for the statement n(n+1) (n+2) is divisible by 6, then what is p(3)?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to evaluate the statement \( P(n) \) for \( n = 3 \). The statement \( P(n) \) is defined as \( n(n+1)(n+2) \) and we need to check if this expression is divisible by 6. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Substituting \( n = 3 \)**: \[ P(3) = 3(3+1)(3+2) \] ...
