If f(1)=3 and f(n)=-2f(n-1)+1,then f(5)=

1 answer:

5 0

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

Euler Bank advertises that it compounds interest continuously and that it will double your money in 20 yr. What is the annual in

Romashka [77]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. You must apply the following formula:

$FV=(PV)(e^{it})$

Where $FV$ is the future value, $PV$ is the present value, $i$ is the interest rate and $t$ is the time in years.

2. You have that the bank will double your money in $20$ years. Therefore:

$FV=2PV$

3. Substitute values into the formula and solve for $i$ , as following:

$2PV=(PV)(e^{(i)(20)} \\ 2=e^{(i)(20)}$

4. By applying natural logarithm, you have:

$ln(2)=(i)(20) \\ i= \frac{ln(2)}{20} \\ i=0.0346$

$i=3.46$ %

The answer is: $3.46$ %
