Ta có:
\(k\left(k+1\right)\left(k+2\right)-\left(k-1\right)k\left(k+1\right)\\ =k\left(k+1\right)\left[\left(k-2\right)-\left(k-1\right)\right]\\ =k\left(k+1\right)\left[k-2-k+1\right]\\ =k\left(k+1\right)\left\{\left[k+\left(-k\right)\right]+\left(2+1\right)\right\}\\ =k\left(k+1\right).3\\ =3.k\left(k+1\right)\)
Vậy \(k\left(k+1\right)\left(k+2\right)-\left(k-1\right)k\left(k+1\right)\\ =3.k.\left(k+1\right)\)
Ta có:
\(VT=k\left(k+1\right)\left(k+2\right)-\left(k-1\right)k\left(k+1\right)\)
\(=k\left(k+1\right)\left[\left(k+2\right)-\left(k-1\right)\right]\)
\(=k\left(k+1\right)\left[k+2-k+1\right]\)
\(=k\left(k+1\right)\left[\left(k-k\right)+\left(2+1\right)\right]\)
\(=k\left(k+1\right).3\)
\(=3k\left(k+1\right)\)
\(\Rightarrow VT=VP\)
Vậy với \(k\in N\)* thì ta luôn có:
\(k\left(k+1\right)\left(k+2\right)-\left(k-1\right)k\left(k+1\right)=3k\left(k+1\right)\) (Đpcm)
