4 + 10 = 2 x 2 + 2 x 5 = 2 x (2 + 5)
I believe its 45 because a right angle equals 90 degrees and if you multiply 45 and 2, it'll give you a right angle(90 degrees)
You can try them out and see which one works.
a: f(2) = f(1) +6 = 5+6 = 11 . . . . . . not this one
b: f(1) = f(2) -6 = -1-6 = -7 . . . . . . not this one (5 ≠ -7)
c: f(2) = f(1) - 6 = 5 - 6 = -1 . . . . . this gives the right f(2)
d: f(2 = -6(f(1) = -6(5) = -30 . . . . not this one
_____
The appropriate choice is ...
... f(n +1) = f(n) - 6

You can also recognize that the next term is 6 less than the current one, so f(n+1) = f(n) - 6, which corresponds to the 3rd selection.
I got ten. Here's the equation.
x = 1/2x + 5
<span>Subtract 1/2x from both sides to get all x's on one side </span>
<span>x - 1/2x = 1/2x - 1/2x + 5 </span>
<span>1/2x = 5 </span>
<span>Now multiple the left by 2 to get x, but since it's an equation, you need to also multiply the right by 2 to keep it =. </span>
<span>2 * 1/2x = 2 * 5 </span>
<span>x = 10 cats</span>
