(9) RewriteLemmaProof (LOWER BOUND(ID) transformation)

Proved the following rewrite lemma:
sum(gen_0':s:+'3_0(n5_0)) → *4_0, rt ∈ Ω(n5₀)

Induction Base:
sum(gen_0':s:+'3_0(0))

Induction Step:
sum(gen_0':s:+'3_0(+(n5_0, 1))) →_R^Ω(1)
+'(*', sum(gen_0':s:+'3_0(n5_0))) →_IH
+'(*', *4_0)

We have rt ∈ Ω(n¹) and sz ∈ O(n). Thus, we have irc_R ∈ Ω(n).
