19. We can write the given statement as

P (n): n (n +1) (n+5), which is multiple of 3.

If n= 1, we get

P (1)=1 (1+1) (1+5)=12, which is a multiple of 3 which is true.

Consider P (k) be true for some positive integer k

k (k+1) (k+ 5) is a multiple of 3

k (k+1) (k+5)= 3 m, where mN  (1)

Now, let us prove that

l i m x 1 s i n ( 3 x 2 4 x + 1 ) x 2 + 1 2 x 3 7 x 2 + a x + b = 2

For this limit to be defined 2x3 – 7x2 + ax + b should also trend to 0 or x ® 1.

2 . ( 1 ) 3 7 ( 1 ) 2 + a 1 + b = 0

 2 – 7 + (a + b) = 0

(a + b) = 5 …………….(i)

Now this becomes % form  we apply L’lopital rule

l i m x 1 ( 3 x 2 4 x + 1 ) x 2 + 1 2 x 3 7 x 2 + a x + b = l i m x 1 c o s ( 3 x 2 4 x + 1 ) ( 6 x 4 ) 2 x 6 x 2 1 4 x + a

Now the numerator again ® 0 as x = 1

  (4+x2)dy2x (x2+3y+4)dx=0

dydx= (6xx2+4)y+2x

e3ln (x2+4)=1 (x2+4)3

So

y (x2+4)3=2x (x2+4)3dx+c

y=12 (x2+4)+c (x2+4)3

When x = 0, y = 0 gives

c=132

So, for x = 2, y = 12

24. Let P (n) be the statement “ 2n+7< (n+3)2”

ofn=1

P (1): 2 ×1+7< (1+3)2

9<42

9<16 which is true. This P (1) is true.

Suppose P (k) is true.

P (k)= 2k+7< (k+3)2   . (1)              

Lets prove that P (k +1) is also true.

“ 2 (k + 1) + 7 < (k + 4)2=k2+ 8k + 16”

P (k +1) = 2 (k +1) +7 = (2k +7) +2
