Prove by mathematical induction that 2^(2n-1) + 3^(2n-1) is divisible by 5 for all natural numbers n.

First check that this works for n=1:2^(2x1 - 1) + 3^(2x1 - 1) = 2^1 +3^1 = 5 (so true for n=1)Now we assume this to work for any n = k.Assumption: 2^(2k-1) + 3^(2k-1) = 5a, where a is some integer constan...
