Hi so I have this question for an intro to proofs class (I've never taken proofs)
I attached a picture of my rough work it's kind of messy but if you can't read it I am happy to re write everything much clearer.
First off I just want to say this is just rough work I would never hand in a proof that looks like this.
So in terms of the proof, simply, I am trying to do 3 things
1) show the basis
2) n=k
3)n=k+1
and at the end of 3) the left side should = the right side, thus completing the proof
I have those (1,2,3) marked in the picture.
I do not want the answer!
I just would like to know where I messed up.
It has to be (I think) in step 3) where I am doing n = k + 1
My algebra is wrong there somewhere, if someone could kindly point out where I messed up I would appreciate it.
