Paper 2Logic & proofSequences & series

The sequence u1,u2,u3,…u_1,u_2,u_3,\ldots is defined by un=n2+knu_n=n^2+kn, where kk is a real constant.

Consider the two statements:

PP: k>−2k>-2

QQ: the sequence is strictly increasing, that is un+1>unu_{n+1}>u_n for every n≥1n\geq1

Which one of the following is true?

APP is necessary and sufficient for QQ.
BPP is necessary but not sufficient for QQ.
CPP is sufficient but not necessary for QQ.
DPP is not necessary and not sufficient for QQ.
