F(5) = - 2f(4) + 1
f(4) = -2f(3) + 1
f(3) = -2f(2) + 1
f(2) = -2f(1) + 1
Therefore:
f(2) = -2(3) + 1 = -5
f(3) = -2(-5) + 1 = 11
f(4) = -2(11) + 1 = -21
Therefore f(5) = -2(-21) + 1 = 43
Answer: The 4 answers are x=18, x=3, x=48, x=81 1/2.
Step-by-step explanation: Isolate the variable by dividing by each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
Looks like you meant to write (p/q)³ if so it's power of a quotient
The property of exponents says that when you divide two exponents with the same base, you can keep the base and subtract the exponents. So you can do 18-3, which is 15, so it would be 15 to the 15th power
