Answer:
Let P(n) be a statement such that truth of P(n)⇒P(n+1) for all n∈N
Now from the statement of the Principle of Mathematical Induction,
we know that if a statement is assumed true for n=k and then if it holds true for n=k+1 and n=1, then the statement is true for all n.
So P(n)⇒P(n+1) is given so for P(n) to be true for all n∈N, P(1) should be true.
But nothing has been stated about P(1). so nothing can be said about the truth of P(n).
