Detailed Solution

Consider statement 2.
p(n)=n7n   Is divisible by 7. nN 
p(1)=171=0  is divisible by 7.
p(1)=1  is true
Suppose p(k):k7k  is divisible by 7 true. Let  k7k=7m,mN(1)
 (k+1)7(k+1)=k7+(71)k6+(72)k5+....+7k+1k1 =(k7k)+(71)k6+(72)k5+.....+(76)k
k7k  is divisible by 7 and (7r)  is divisible by 7. For  1r6.         (By(1))
p(k+1)  is true.
p(n)  is true, nN .
  Statement (2) is true.
Now consider statement 1.
From statement 2,  n2n   is divisible by 7.
(n+1)7(n+1)   is divisible by 7.
(n+1)7(n+1)=7m,mN  and   n7n=7p.             pN 
 (n+1)7n7+n7n1=7m [(n+1)7n71]+(n7n)=7m (n+1)7n71=7(mp)
(n+1)7n71   is divisible by 7.       nN
  Statement1 is also true.
   Statement 1 and statement 2 both are true and statement 2 is the correct explanation for statement 1.
