Use the Principle of Mathematical Induction to show that the statement is true for all natural numbers n.Use the Principle of Mathematical Induction to show that the statement "5 is a factor of 7n - 2n" is true for all natural numbers. (Hint: 
What will be an ideal response?
When , so the statement is true when
. Assume the statement is true for some natural number k. That is,
for some integer m. Then,
.
So the statement is true for . Conditions I and II are satisfied; by the Principle of Mathematical Induction, the statement is true for all natural numbers.
