Question

1. suppose a formula that you need to prove by mathematical induction is true for all the natural numbers. which value could you use to show that the formula is true for a certain value? 1.22, \\(\frac{2}{3}\\), -5, 10

Explanation:

Mathematical induction proves formulas for all natural numbers, which are positive integers (1, 2, 3, ...). We need to select a natural number from the options. 1.22 is a non-integer decimal, $\frac{2}{3}$ is a non-integer fraction, -5 is a negative integer, and 10 is a positive integer (natural number).

Answer:

10
