Ok theres a question, im not sure if what i did was right.. well i think it is..but anyway its best to check hehe.
If you have an induction question such as the following:
If u1 = 5, u2 = 11, and un = 4un-1 - 3un-2 for n >= 3, show that un = 2 + 3n
Is it ok to do the following:
1. Show true for n = 1
2. Show true for n = 2
3. Assume true for both n = k -1, and n = k
4. Hence show true for n = k +1 using the results of the assumptions in step 3.
So is it valid to do steps 3 and 4? Thanks...
