Thm: For all prices p >= 8 cents, the price p can be paid using
only 5-cent and 3-cent coins.
Proof (by mathematical induction):
Basis step: Show the theorem holds for p=8 (by example, e.g. p=3+5)
Inductive step:
Assume [or “Suppose”] that the theorem holds for some p8.
WTS that the theorem holds for p+1.
p8.
Assume that p=5n+3m where n,m0 are integers.
We need to show that p+1=5a+3b for integers a,b0.
Partition to cases:
Case I: n1. In this case, p+1=5*(n-1)+3*(m+2).
Case II: m3. In this case, p+1=5*(n+2)+3*(m-3).
Case III: n=0 and m2. Then p=5n+3m6 which is a
contradiction to p8.
So the inductive step holds, completing the proof.

We created an algorithm!

proof actually allows us to
algorithmically find a way to pay p using
3-cent and 5-cent coins

of coins according to the modification rules
we’ve constructed to maintain price x

Theorem: Algorithm uses at most two nickels (i.e n2).
Proof: by induction on p
Base case: p=8. Algorithm outputs n=m=1.
Inductive hypothesis: p=5n+3m where n2.
WTS p+1=5a+3b where a2.
Proof by cases:


Case I: n1. So p+1=5(n-1)+3(m+2) and a=n-12.
Case II: n=0. So p+1=5*2+3(m-3). a=2.
In both cases p+1=5a+3b where a2. QED


Base case: 8=3+5, 9=3+3+3, 10=5+5
Assume it holds for all prices 1..p-1, prove for price
p when p11
Proof: since p-38 we can use the inductive
hypothesis for p-3. To get price p simply add
another 3-cent coin.
Much easier than standard induction!


All integers greater than 1 are either prime or
composite (exclusive or—can’t be both).
Definition of divisible:


n is prime if a, b  : n  ab  a  1  b  1
n is composite if n=ab for some 1<a,b<n
n is divisible by d iff n = dk for some integer k.
2 is prime (you may assume this; it also follows from
the definition).

divisible by a prime number.

Thm: For all integers n greater than 1, n is divisible by a prime
number.
Proof (by strong mathematical induction):
Basis step: Show the theorem holds for n=2.
Inductive step:
Assume that for some n2, all integers 2kn are divisible by a prime.
WTS that n+1 is divisible by a prime.
Proof by cases:
 Case 1: n+1 is prime. n+1 divides itself so we are done.
 Case 2: n+1 is composite. Then n+1=ab with 1<a,b<n+1. By the
induction hypothesis, since an there exists a prime p which
divides a. So p|a and a|n+1. We’ve already seen that this
implies that p|n+1 (in exam – give full details!)
So the inductive step holds, completing the proof.

Inductive step:
Assume [or “Suppose”] that for some int n3, the theorem holds for all int k,
nk 3. (i.e. 0<dk<1 for all k between 3 and n, inclusive)
WTS that 0<dn+1<1.
By definition, dn+1=dn dn-1.
By the inductive hypothesis, 0<dn-1<1 and 0<dn<1.
Hence, 0<dn+1<1.
So the inductive step holds, completing the proof.
