HW #10 (preliminary edition)
Due: 4:00pm, Friday, December 2

1. Prove by (weak) mathematical induction that  (+i | 1≤i≤n : 2i + 5) = n2 + 6n  for all n ≥ 0.

2. Define f : ℕ → ℕ as follows:

f.0 = 1
f.1 = 2
f.n =  3·f(n-1) - 2·f(n-2)    (for n≥2)

Prove by (strong) mathematical induction that f.n = 2n  for all n ≥ 0.
