Exercise 6. Let En be the sequence of Fibonacci numbers: Fo = 0, F1 = 1, and Fn+2 = Fn+1 + Fn for all natural numbers n. For example, F2 = Fi + Fo=1+0=1 and F3 = F2 + F1 = 1+1 = 2. Prove that Fn = Fla" – BM) for all natural numbers n, where 1 + a=1+ V5 B-1-15 =- 2 Hint: Use strong induction. Notice that a +1 = a and +1 = B2!

Question 6: Let n 2 1 be an integer and let A[1...n] be an array that stores a permutation of the set { 1, 2, . .. , n). If the array A s sorted. then Ak] = k for k = 1.2. .., n and, thus. TL k-1 If the array A is not sorted and Ak-i, where iメk, then Ak-서 is equal to the "distance" that the valuei must move in order to make the array sorted. Thus,...
Prove that there exists infinitely many numbers of the form an = n(n+1)/2 , for some positive integer n, such that every pair an, am (for n != m) are relatively prime. [Hint: Assume there exists a finite sequence an1 < an2 < an3 < . . . < anm, where nj are increasing positive integers. Show that using those numbers we can construct a new number that fulfills the requirements.]
Problem 1. Let A be an m x m matrix. (a) Prove by induction that if A is invertible, then for every n N, An is invertible. (b) Prove that if there exists n N such that An is invertible, then A is invertible. (c) Let Ai, . . . , An be m x m matrices. Prove that if the product Ai … An is an invertible matrix, then Ak is invertible for each 1 < k< n. (d)...
