Recall that the Fibonacci numbers are defined by F0 = 0,F1 = 1 and Fn+2 = Fn+1 + Fn for all n ∈N∪{0}. (1) Make and prove an (if and only if) conjecture about which Fibonacci numbers are multiples of 3. (2) Make a conjecture about which Fibonacci numbers are multiples of 2020. (You do not need to prove your conjecture.) How many base cases would a proof by induction of your conjecture require?

Let P4 denote the space of polynomials of degree less than 4 with real coefficients. Show that the standard operations of addition of polynomials, and multiplication of polynomials by a scalar, give P4 the structure of a vector space (over the real numbers R). Your answer should include verification of each of the eight vector space axioms (you may assume the two closure axioms hold for this problem).

Consider the following sequence: 0, 6, 9, 9, 15, 24, . . .. Let the first term of the sequence, a1 = 0, and the second, a2 = 6, and the third a3 = 9. Once we have defined those, we can define the rest of the sequence recursively. Namely, the n-th term is the sum of the previous term in the sequence and the term in the sequence 3 before it: an = an−1 + an−3. Show using induction...
