Can you please explain what the right side should be to prove this statement? I'm very confused by the two variables. 

 

Prove the following statement by mathematical induction.
n+1
For every integernz 0, Fi.2' = n: 2" + 2+ 2.
i = 1
Proof (by mathematical induction): Let P(n) be the equation
n+1
Si:2' = n 2'
+ 2.
i= 1
We will show that P(n) is true for every integer n 2 0.
Show that P(0) is true: Select P(0) from the choices below.
0 + 1
- 21 +2 +
1.
i = 0
2
O 2 = 0- 2" + 2
+ 2
0 + 1
Oi: 2 = 0 - 20 + 2+ 2
i = 1
n + 1
Ei.2' = 0. 20 + 2+ 2
i = 1
The selected statement is true because both sides of the equation equal the same quantity.
Show that for each integer k 2 0, if P(k) is true, then P(k + 1) is true:
Let k be any integer with k z 0, and suppose that P(k) is true. Select the expression for the left-hand side of P(k) from the choices below.
k+1
i = 1
k+1
i = 1
k+1
Σ
i= 1
k+1
The right-hand side of P(k) is (i+1) · 2(?+1)+2+2
IThe inductive hvpothesis states that the two sides of P(k) are equal.1
