Can someone please help me with this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Find \[P _{k+1}\] for the given \[P _{k}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[P _{k}=k^2(2k+2)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don understand this, and I would love it if someone could show me how to work the problem!

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

looks like you'd just set k = k+1 and expand

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't even know how to do that.

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\bf P_{\color{red}{ k}}={\color{red}{ k}}^2(2{\color{red}{ k}}+2)\qquad k=k+1\qquad P_{\color{red}{ k+1}}=({\color{red}{ k+1}})^2(2({\color{red}{ k+1}})+2)\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is that the answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

where you see a \(k\) replace it by \(k+1\) and use parentheses

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[P _{k}=k^2(2k+2)\] \[P _{k+1}=(k+1)^2(2(k+1)+2)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then I solve that? I dont know how....
