Prove, by induction, that 4^(n+1) + 5^(2n-1) is always divisible by 21

Firstly when proving something by induction, we always show that the base case works, i.e. we plug in n=1. In this case we get 42 + 51 =21, which is divisible by 2...

A line has Cartesian equations x−p = (y+2)/q = 3−z and a plane has equation r ∙ [1,−1,−2] = −3. In the case where the angle θ between the line and the plane satisfies sin⁡θ=1/√6 and the line intersects the plane at z = 0. Find p and q.

This question gives hints as to how you should solve it. Because it tells you the angle between the line and the plane, this should indicate that doing something to do with finding the angle between the l...

Prove that 27(23^n)+17(10^2n)+22n is divisible by 11 for n belongs to the natural numbers

Proofs come in many shapes and sizes but this one is done via induction. When doing proof by induction, examiners love a list of a clear definite list of steps, the first being the base case, in t...
