Question 1
Using 9 distinct integers from 1 to 20, demonstrate through a sequence how the pigeonhole principle ensures either an increasing or decreasing subsequence of length 5.
💡 Hint: Look for how many distinct lengths can be achieved and overlap them.
Question 2
Given the sequence of prime numbers up to 30, find a subsequence of at least 4 numbers that is strictly increasing and explain your reasoning.
💡 Hint: Remember that primes inherently don't repeat, aiding your subsequence choice.
