I have a mathematical induction question and I know what I need to do just not how to do it.
The question is:
Prove the equality of:
(1+2+...+n)2=13+23...+n3
Base case:
(1+2)2=13+23(3)2=1+89=9
and I understand I have to get the sides to equal each other though I'm not sure how to do that:
I use this:
(1+...+n+(n+1))2=13+...+n3+(n+1)3
but i can't seem to factor anything in anyway to figure it out . . .
I've tried putting the S(n) in the S(n+1):
(1+...+n+(n+1))2=(1+...+n)2+(n+1)3
but its just getting the −(n+1)3 on the first side I can't figure out...
Any help would be amazing!!!!
