|
答案
证明:(1)当n=1时,左边=1×2×3=6,右边=
=6=左边,1×2×3×4 4
∴等式成立.(2分)
(2)设当n=k(k∈N*)时,等式成立,
即1×2×3+2×3×4++k×(k+1)×(k+2)=
.(4分)k(k+1)(k+2)(k+3) 4
则当n=k+1时,左边=1×2×3+2×3×4++k×(k+1)×(k+2)+(k+1)(k+2)(k+3)=
+(k+1)(k+2)(k+3)k(k+1)(k+2)(k+3) 4 =(k+1)(k+2)(k+3)(
+1)=k 4 (k+1)(k+2)(k+3)(k+4) 4 =
.(k+1)(k+1+1)(k+1+2)(k+1+3) 4
∴n=k+1时,等式也成立.(8分)
由(1)、(2)可知,原等式对于任意n∈N*成立.(10分)
