Let P n be the following proposition over P the set of positive integers a Which of the following is P 5 5 5 1 2 5 1 6 OA 12 22 52 OB 5 5 1 2 5 1 6 OC 12 22 5 OD 12 22 52 55 OE None of the above 12 2 n b Is P 5 true or false and why O A P 5 is true because 5 5 1 2 5 1 is a correct expression O B P 5 is true because both sides of the equation equal 55 OC P 5 is true because P 5 equals 55 OD P 5 is false because one side equals 55 but the other side does not equal 55 OE None of the above n n 1 2n 1 6 c Let k be a positive integer Consider P k and P k 1 What can you add to the left hand side of P k to get to the left hand side of P x 1 Enter an expression involving k
