Homework Statement
B =
(3 -1)
(1 1)
show using induction B^n = 2^(n-1)
(2+n -n)
(n 2-n)
The Attempt at a Solution
First i prove the base case so let n=1 B=2^0
(3 -1)
(1 1) so it holds true.
then assume it holds true for n=k prove it true for n=k+1
so i sub in and get
b^k+1 = 2^k
(3+k -k-1)
(k+1 1-k)
but I'm not sure where to go from here, thanks for looking! (sorry i don't know how to put in a matrix)
