QUESTION 1 ( 12 marks)

HE2
a)

Write the sum 5 + 9 + 13 +....+ 4n 3 in Sigma Notation

b)

Use the method of mathematical induction to prove that

(1 + 0+ (2 + 3) + (3 + 5) + ... + (n + (2n

0) = 2 n(3n + 1)

where n is a positive integer.

c)

(i)

By considering the cases where a positive integer k is even

(k = 2x) and odd (k = 2x + 1),

show that k 2 + k is always

even. i.e. k 2 + k = 2m , where m is also an integer.

(ii)

Prove, by Mathematical induction, that for all positive integral

values of n, n 3 + 5n is divisible by 6.

HE3

When Lleyton and Bec play tennis, Bec has a 0.1 chance of winning
any particular game. On the weekend they intend to play 6 games.
Calculate the probability ( to 2 significant figures) that :

(i)

Bec wins no games.

(ii)

Bec wins at least one game.

(iii)

Bec wins 4 or more games.

The probability of George being late to class is 0.2. He is supposed

to attend 20 classes in a week. The Year Coordinator has said that if
George is late to three or more classes in a week he will receive a
detention.

(i)

Show that the probability that George receives a detention for being
late is 0.79 correct to two decimal places.

(ii)

The principal said that if George received n or more detentions for

being late in a ten week term, he would be suspended. George's
mates worked out that the probability of George being suspended
was 0.65 (correct to two decimal places).
Using your answer to part (i), find the value of n.
