Use mathematical induction to show that
$${\left( {25} \right)^{n + 1}} - 24n + 5735$$ is divisible by $${\left( {24} \right)^2}$$ for all $$ = n = 1,2,...$$

Let a, b be positive real numbers. If a, $${{A_1},{A_2}}$$, b are in arithmetic progression, a, $${{G_1},{G_2}}$$, b are in geometric progression and a, $${{H_1},{H_2}}$$, b are in harmonic progression, show that $$\,{{{G_1},{G_2}} \over {{H_1},{H_2}}} = {{{A_1} + {A_2}} \over {{H_1} + {H_2}}} = {{(2a + b)\,(a + 2b)} \over {9ab}}$$.

A straight line $$L$$ through the origin meets the lines $$x + y = 1$$ and $$x + y = 3$$ at $$P $$ and $$Q$$ respectively. Through $$P$$ and $$Q$$ two straight lines $${L_1}$$ and $${L_2}$$ are drawn, parallel to $$2x - y = 5$$ and $$3x + y = 5$$ respectively. Lines $${L_1}$$ and $${L_2}$$ intersect at $$R$$. Show that the locus of $$R$$, as $$L$$ varies is a straight line.

A straight line $$L$$ with negative slope passes through the point $$(8, 2)$$ and cuts the positive coordinate axes at points $$P$$ and $$Q$$. Find the absolute minimum value of $$OP + OQ,$$ as $$L$$ varies, where $$O$$ is the origin.
