Math Problem Statement
Let P(n) be the statement that
For all postive integers, .
To prove this statement by using mathematics induction, which of the following is FALSE?
Group of answer choices
The base step is P(1).
In the inductive step, we assume P(k) is True for and prove P(k+1) is True.
In the inductive step, the assumption that plays a role in proving P(k+1) is True.
In the inductive step, the induction hypothesis plays a role in proving P(k+1) is True.
