All the tools & learning materials you need for study success - in one app.
Get started for freeTrace Algorithm 1 when it is given n = 6 as input. That is, show all steps used by Algorithm 1 to find 6!, as is done in Example 1 to find 4!.
Devise a recursive algorithm for computing where n is a nonnegative integer, using the fact that . Then prove that this algorithm is correct.
Prove that a set with n elements has subsets containing exactly two elements whenever n is an integer greater than or equal to 2.
Let P (n)be the statement that for the positive integer n .
a) What is the statement P (1) ?
b) Show that P (1) is true, completing the basic step of
the proof.
c) What is the inductive hypothesis?
d) What do you need to prove in the inductive step?
e) Complete the inductive step, identifying where you
use the inductive hypothesis.
f) Explain why these steps show that this formula is true whenever nis a positive integer.
