Abstract:The test administered for the Lower Michigan Mathematics Competition (LMMC) in the Spring of 2007 contained a very strong focus on Proof by Mathematical Induction, often dubbed 'Induction', compared to past LMMC examinations. Being able to solve such problems quickly as well as a simple combinatorics problem, a simple bounding problem, and a college geometry problem within three hours assured victory. I will go over a complete solution process through a few of these problems and describe a few other problems time permitting.
