What are the 5 answer choices that always accompany GMAT math questions? :-)

As you might imagine, questions involving proofs are not within the scope of the GMAT.
This looks like a question from a 1st- or 2nd-year Number Theory course.
I haven't attempted the proof, but my gut tells me you can prove this via induction.

Cheers,
