Prove by induction that 4n!>2^(n+2) for all n>=4
what is >=
=>
greater equal to
Greater of equal obviously
alright
i am trying to prove that \[4(n+1)!>2^{(n+1)+2}\]
Proofs by induction are simple. You check it is true for the base case, which is 4, assume it is true for n and prove that it is true for n+1
\[4(n+1)!=4(n+1)n!>2^{n+3}\]
\[=>4n!(n+1)>2^{n+2}(n+1)\]
Never mind, i read this wrong, it is difficult to figure out these drawings.
Actually looking over this, your proof is a fallacy
It means that you have started the whole proof resting on the case that the proof holds.
The very first thing you have stated is 4(k+1)!>2^(k+1)+2 which is what you are trying to prove
A fallacy is a falsehood. Something inaccurate. Lulz.
Again you started your proof with the assumption that 4(k+1)!>=2^(k+2)+1 holds
which is what you need to prove.
