A statement Sn about the positive integers is given. Write statements S1, S2, and S3, and show that each of these statements is true.Sn: 2 is a factor of n2 + 3n

What will be an ideal response?


S1:2 is a factor of 12 + 3 ? 1 = 1 + 3 = 4 ?
S2: 2 is a factor of 22 + 3 ? 2 = 4 + 6 = 10 ?
S3: 2 is a factor of 32 + 3 ? 3 = 9 + 9 = 18 ?
