3. Suppose you want to use mathematical induction to prove that:
12+22+…+n2= n(n+1)(2n+1) /6
for all positive integers. To show P(k) implies P(k+1) you assume the equality in the statement
P(k) and-a. Add (k+1)2 to both sides.
b. Add k2+1 to both sides.
c. Add k+1 to both sides.
d. Add k to both sides.
