Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
50-x=3(24-x)
50-x=72-3x
2x=22
x=11years ago when kate's father was 3 times as old as kate=11
We know the first term is 16, because f(1) = 16. Next, we can use the recursive rule provided. f(3)=1/2*f(3-1). This gives us f(3)=1/2*f(2). We know f(2) is 8. We know have f(3)=1/2*8. This is 4.
The answer is 16, 4.
12/5 = x/3. Cross multiply
12*3=5x
36=5x divide both sides by 5.
