Using mathematical induction,the numbers $a_n$ are defined by:
$a_0 = 1, a_{n+1} = 3n^2 + n + a_n, (n \geq 0)$.
Then,$a_n$ is equal to:

  • A
    $n^3 + n^2 + 1$
  • B
    $n^3 - n^2 + 1$
  • C
    $n^3 - n^2$
  • D
    $n^3 + n^2$

If $P(n) = 2 + 4 + 6 + \dots + 2n$,$n \in N$,then $P(k) = k(k + 1) + 2 \implies P(k + 1) = (k + 1)(k + 2) + 2$ for all $k \in N$. So we can conclude that $P(k) = k(k + 1) + 2$ for all $k \in N$ is true. What can we conclude about $P(n) = n(n + 1) + 2$ for all $n \in N$?
