To find f(5), you need to know f(4), to know f(4), you need to find f(3), to know f(3), you need to know f(2)
<span>Use the recursive formula f(n+1)=f(n)-2,
</span>f(2)=f(1)-2, and f(1)=18 is given, so f(2)=18-2=16
f(3)=f(2)-2=16-2=14
f(4)=12
f(5)=10

another way to do it is using the formula: the nth term=the first term +d(n-1)
d represents the difference, which is -2 in this case
so f(5)=f(1)-2(5-1)
f(5)=18-8=10

7. Evaluate 4P2<br><br> O<br><br> 22<br><br> O<br><br> 12<br><br> O<br><br> 14<br><br> 5
Reika [66]

Answer:

<h2>12</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate 4P2, we will use the permutation formula as shown;

nPr = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}

4P2 = \frac{4!}{(4-2!}

= \frac{4!}{2!} \\= \frac{4*3*2!}{2!}\\ = 4*3\\= 12

4P2 = 12
