maybe the question is  n^2 >n+5 for n≥3

$${maybe}\:{the}\:{question}\:{is} \\ $$ $${n}^{\mathrm{2}} >{n}+\mathrm{5}\:{for}\:{n}\geqslant\mathrm{3} \\ $$

3^2 >3−5  k^2 >k−5        (1)   hipotesis  2k+1>1       (2)   if  k≥3  then  (k+1)^2 >(k+1)−5

$$\mathrm{3}^{\mathrm{2}} >\mathrm{3}−\mathrm{5} \\ $$ $${k}^{\mathrm{2}} >{k}−\mathrm{5}\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\left(\mathrm{1}\right)\:\:\:{hipotesis} \\ $$ $$\mathrm{2}{k}+\mathrm{1}>\mathrm{1}\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\left(\mathrm{2}\right)\:\:\:{if}\:\:{k}\geqslant\mathrm{3} \\ $$ $${then} \\ $$ $$\left({k}+\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} >\left({k}+\mathrm{1}\right)−\mathrm{5} \\ $$

n^2 =n×n≥3n=n+2n≥n+6>n−5

$${n}^{\mathrm{2}} ={n}×{n}\geqslant\mathrm{3}{n}={n}+\mathrm{2}{n}\geqslant{n}+\mathrm{6}>{n}−\mathrm{5} \\ $$
