ANSWER
1. (a). n = 1
4 (1) = 2 (1) (1 + 1)
4  = 4.
(b). n = k
4 + 8 + n + … + 4k = 2k (k +1).
(c). n = k + 1
      4 + 8 + 2 + … 4k + 4 (k +1) = 2 (k +1) (k+1)+1
2k (k + 1) + 4k +4 = 2 (k + 1) (k + 2)
2k2+ 2k + 4k + 4 = 2 (k + 1) (k + 2)
2k2 + 6k +4 = 2 (k + 1) (k + 2)

      13 + 33 + 53 + … + (2k– 1)3 + 2 (k + 1 – 1)3 = (k + 1)2 (2k +1)2 – 1
k2 (2k2 -1) + 2 (k + 1 – 1)3 = (k + 1)2 (2 (k +1)2 – 1
k2 (2k2 – 1) + 2 (k)3 = (k + 1)2 (2 (k +1)2 – 1
