    I remember when I learned proof by induction. I hated it so much, and division was the worst. Now I can do it, but I still watch to see how he teaches my second least favourite topic. (Second only to vectors)

    So you're telling me that in Australia kids are studying this at school, while here in Argentina I had to study this in my first year of university..

      I'm from Australia and I did NOT study mathematical induction in high school. Like you I only studied it in my first year of univeristy. I think the school Eddie teaches at has a strong STEM focus, so they probably have more funding to teach this stuff.

    The way we learned in school is that in this type of exercises the first term is for n=0, 5^0+3=1+3=4 which is divisible by 4.

    Please do linear algebra. TH-cam as a whole can benefit from you teaching that to students across the world.

    What I did after was multiply everything by 5 then subtract 12 from both sides and then can express RHS as multiple of 4 to show true for n = k + 1

    Why not use N+, if we're only interested in positive whole numbers?

    • @pronounjow
      @pronounjow 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Whizzer191 N+ only explicitly excludes 0, whereas Z+ explicitly excludes 0 and negative numbers, and still without including anything beyond the integers. It's better to be as thorough as you can to get rid of logical ambiguity.

    Do we have to also specify that k belongs to Z+ ?

    • @aserillll
      @aserillll 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Błażej Lewandowski You assume that k takes the value of n so you don't have to say it again, n is already some positive integer and k is that value again.

    • @jffry102
      @jffry102 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't think so. The first statement that it is true for the positive integer n already specifies it. When k would be a number outside of that, the first statement wouldn't apply, and therefore be false anyway.

      It makes it more clear, yes. But I don't think it's technically required.

      FahimTheStrategist Its the same process just maybe longer in some parts. The essentials of induction are to establish a base case first, then an inductive hypothesis, then prove for k+1
