Binomial Theorem And Its Simple Applications Question 74
Question: A student was asked to prove a statement P (n) by induction. He proved that $ P(k+1) $ is true whenever $ P(k) $ is true for all $ k>5\in N $ and also that P (5) is true. On the basis of this he could conclude that P(n) is true
Options:
A) For all $ n\in N $
B) For all $ n>5 $
C) For all $ n\ge 5 $
D) For all $ n<5 $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
- [c] Since $ P(5) $ is true and $ P(k+1) $ is true, whenever $ P(k) $ is true.
