उत्तर
Let P(n) ≡ 2 + 3.2 + 4.22 + ... + (n + 1)2n–1 = n.2n-1 = n.2n, for all n ∈ N
Step I:
Put n = 1
L.H.S. = 2
R.H.S. = 1(21) = 2 = L.H.S.
∴ P(n) is true for n = 1
Step II:
Let us consider that P(n) is true for n = k
∴ 2 + 3.2 + 4.22 + … + (k + 1)2k–1 = k.2k …(i)
Step III:
We have to prove that P(n) is true for n = k + 1
i.e., to prove that
2 + 3.2 + 4.22 + …. + (k + 2)2k = (k + 1)2k+1
L.H.S. = 2 + 3.2 + 4.22 + …. + (k + 2)2k
= 2 + 3.2 + 4.22 + …. + (k + 1)2k–1 + (k + 2)2k
= k.2k + (k + 2).2k …[From (i)]
= (k + k + 2).2k
= (2k + 2). 2k
= (k + 1).2.2k
= (k + 1). 2k+1
= R.H.S.
∴ P(n) is true for n = k + 1
Step IV:
From all steps above by the principle of mathematical induction, P(n) is true for all n ∈ N.

Give an example of a statement P(n) which is true for all n ≥ 4 but P(1), P(2) and P(3) are not true. Justify your answer.
1 + 2 + 3 + ... + n = \[\frac{n(n + 1)}{2}\] i.e. the sum of the first n natural numbers is \[\frac{n(n + 1)}{2}\] .
\[\frac{1}{2 . 5} + \frac{1}{5 . 8} + \frac{1}{8 . 11} + . . . + \frac{1}{(3n - 1)(3n + 2)} = \frac{n}{6n + 4}\]
\[\frac{1}{1 . 4} + \frac{1}{4 . 7} + \frac{1}{7 . 10} + . . . + \frac{1}{(3n - 2)(3n + 1)} = \frac{n}{3n + 1}\]
