Problem 16. Prove for all natural numbers $n\geq 5$:\ \ $2^n>n^2$.

Problem 17. Let $n\in\mathbb{N}$. Conjecture a formula for the expression \[a_n=\frac{1}{1\cdot 2}+\frac{1}{2\cdot 3}+\frac{1}{3\cdot 4}+\cdots +\frac{1}{n\cdot (n+1)}\] and prove your conjecture by induction.

Problem 18. Use Problem 15 and induction to show that ${\cal P}(A)$ has $2^n$ elements, when $A$ has $n$ elements.
