  2. Principle of Mathematical Induction Suppose S(n) is a statement about integers. If a) S(n) is true whenever S(n-1) is true, for each n >, and b) is true Then S(n) is true for all integers

  3. Use Mathematical Induction

  4. Use Mathematical Induction Second Step: Make a conjecture for a concise formula for as a function of n.

  5. Use Mathematical Induction Third Step: Use Mathematical Induction
