2. 
By binomial theorem,
(a + b)n = nC0 (a)n (b)0 + nC1 (a)n–1 (b)1 + …………. + nCr (a)n–r (b)r + …………… + nCn (a)n–n (b)n
Where, b0 = 1 = an–n
So, (a + b)n = nCr (a)n–r (b)r
Putting a = 1 and b = 3 such that a + b = 4, we can rewrite the above equation as
(1 + 3)n = nCr (1)n–r.3r
=>4n = .nCr
Hence proved.

1. For a number x to be divisible by y, we can write x as a factor of y i.e., x = ky where k is some natural number. Thus in order for 9n+1 – 8n – 9 to be divisible by 64 we need to show that 9n+1 – 8n – 9 = 64k where k is some natural number.
We have, by binomial theorem
(1 + a)m = mC0 + mC1 (a) + mC2 (a)2 + mC3 (a)3 + ………… + mCm (a)m
Putting, a = 8 and m = n + 1
(1 + 8)n+1 = n+1C0 + n+1C1.8 + n+1C2.82 + n+1C3.83 + ……. + n+1Cn+1. (8)n+1
=> 9n+1= 1 + (n + 1)8 + 82* [n+1C2 + n+1C3.8 + ………. + n+1Cn+1. (8)n+1–2] [since, n+1C0 = 1, n+1C1= n + 1]
=> 9n+1 = 1 + 8n + 8 + 64 * [n+1C2 + n+1C3.8 + ……

24. Let P (n) be the statement “ 2n+7< (n+3)2
ofn=1
P (1): 2
9<16 which is true. This P (1) is true.
Suppose P (k) is true.
P (k)= 2k+7< (k+3)2 . (1)
Lets prove that P (k +1) is also true.
“ 2 (k + 1) + 7 < (k + 4)2=k2+ 8k + 16”
P (k +1) = 2 (k +1) +7 = (2k +7) +2
< (k +3)2+ 2 (Using 1)
= k2+ 9 + 6k +2 = k2+6k +11
Adding and subtracting (2k + k) in the R. H. S.
for all
is true.
By the principle of mathematical induction, P (n)is true for all n N.

23. Let
Put n= 1,
is a multiple of 27.
Which is true.
Assume that P(k) is true for some natural no. k.
P(k)= be a multiple of 27
i.e,
(1)
We want to prove that P(k+1) is also true.
Now,
(Using 1)
is true when P(k) is true.
Hence, by P.M.I. P(n) is true for every positive integer n.

22. Let P(n): is divisible by 8
put n= 1,
P(1):
34 – 8 – 9 = 81– 17 = 64= is divisible by 8
Which is true.
Assume that P(k) is true for some natural numbers k.
i.e, be divisible by 8
where,a
(1)
We want to prove thatP(k+ 1) is true.
is divisible by 8, is also true.
Now,
=
3(2k +2). 32 8k 17
(Using 1)
= 72a + 64k+ 64 = 8(9a + 8k + 8)
= 8b, where b = 9a + 8b + 8
32k + 4– 8(k+1) – 9 is divisible by 8.
P(k+1) is true when P(k) is true. Hence, By P.M.I. P(n) is true for all positive integer n.

21. Let
Assume that P(k) is true for some natural no. k
i.e.

20. LetP(n):
Putting n = 1
Which is true. Thus, P(1) is true.
Let us assume that P(k) is true for some natural no. k.
P(k)=
we want to prove that P(k +1) is true.
=1100a
11b where b= (100a
is true when p(k) is true.
Hence by P.M.I. P(n) is true for every positive integer.

19. We can write the given statement as
P (n): n (n +1) (n+5), which is multiple of 3.
If n= 1, we get
P (1)=1 (1+1) (1+5)=12, which is a multiple of 3 which is true.
Consider P (k) be true for some positive integer k
k (k+1) (k+ 5) is a multiple of 3
k (k+1) (k+5)= 3 m, where
Now, let us prove that P (k + 1) is true
Here,
(k+ 1) { (k+1)+ 1} { (k+1)+ 5}
We can write it as
= (k +1) (k+ 2) { (k + 5) + 1}
By Multiplying the terms.
By eqn. (1)
= 3m + 2 (k + 1) (k + 5) + (k + 1) (k + 2)
= 3m + (k + 1) {2 (k + 5) + (k +2)}
= 3m + (k + 1) {2k + 10 +k + 2}
= 3m + (k + 1) (3k +12)
= 3m + 3 (k + 1) (k+ 4)
=3 {m + (k + 1) (k + 4)}
