... (n2 + 5n + 1) + (2n + 6). Now by Pn , the first term is even. And the second term is 2(n + 3), so it is even. So their sum is even. This means Pn+1 is true. b) For which n is Pn actually true? Well, consider two cases. If n is even, then n2 is even, 5n is even, and 1 is odd, so their sum is odd. H ...

Universally true assertions

Here I am using “almost always” in its ordinary sense in conversational English. In fact, “almost always” has a mathematical definition for which the s ...

Basic Concepts of Formal Logic
... argument is deductively valid is to say that, whatever the truth or falsity of its premises and conclusion, it could never be the case that, at one and the same time, all of the premises of that argument were true and its conclusion false. Another way of defining a valid argument is to say that it h ...
