Resumen
An induction proof of a formula consists of three parts:a) Show the formula is true for n=1; b) Assume the formula is true for n;c) Using b), show the formula is true for n+1.For c), the usual strategy for a summation a1+a2+a3+...+an=f(n) is to manipulate f(n)+a(n+1) into the form f(n+1).Induction is a method for checking a result; discovering the result may be hard Componente Curricular::Educação Superior::Ciências Exatas e da Terra::Matemática
