Question

Solve it by using induction method:

**Exercise: Mathematical Induction**

**Problem Statement:**

Prove that for every integer \( n \geq 0 \), \( 9 \mid (4^{3n} + 8) \).

**Solution Approach:**

To prove this statement, you may consider using the method of mathematical induction. The process involves the following steps:

1. **Base Case:** Verify the statement for the initial value \( n = 0 \).
2. **Inductive Step:** Assume the statement is true for \( n = k \), i.e., \( 9 \mid (4^{3k} + 8) \). Then, prove it for \( n = k + 1 \).

**Explanation:**

The notation \( 9 \mid (4^{3n} + 8) \) means that the expression \( 4^{3n} + 8 \) is divisible by 9 for every integer \( n \) greater than or equal to 0.

You will find that both steps of induction confirm the divisibility condition, solidifying the statement for all non-negative integers \( n \).
