In Mathland, we learned about how we can prove a statement using the platform of Mathematical induction. Mathematical induction is very simple, but is long and has clear steps and things you must write every time for it to hold true! For example, without the statement: "assume the statement is true for n" at the start of step 2, it would not hold true! With mathematical induction, you must memorize the format in order to do it. Mainly, there are two steps. The first step is prove the statement is true at the starting point while step 2 is to assume the statement is true for n and then prove that the statement is true for n+1.
Here is a picture of the format you must follow, the orange parts hold three for all mathematical induction proofs
