Define a set M recursively as follows.

B. 3 and 7 are in M

R. If x and y are in M, so is x+y. (it is possible that x = y)

Prove for every natural number n greater than or equal to 12, n is an element of M

Consider the relation R defined on the set R as follows: ∀x, y ∈ R, (x, y) ∈ R if and only if x + 2 > y. For example, (4, 3) is in R because 4 + 2 = 6, which is greater than 3.

Define a Q-sequence recursively as follows. B.   x, 4 − x is a Q-sequence for any real number x. R.   If x1, x2,   , xj and y1, y2,   , yk are Q-sequences, so is     x1 − 1, x2,   , xj, y1, y2,   , yk − 3. Use structural induction (i.e., induction on the recursive definition) to prove that the sum of the numbers in any Q-sequence is 4. Base Case: Any Q-sequence formed by the base case of the definition has sum x +...

Consider a set of ? strings over alphabet ? = {?, ?}, defined recursively as follows. ?∈? ? ∈ ? ⟹ ??? ∈ ? Furthermore, ? has no elements other than those obtained by finitely many applications of the recurrence rule given in its definition. For example, the first four elements of ? are ?, ???, ?????, ??????? Use mathematical induction to prove that there are no strings in ? that end in ?. {3 points.
