The table below shows the first 16 terms of the fibonacci sequence. Based on these numbers, which of these statements are true a

bout the Fibonacci sequence? Check all that apply
A.) the fibonacci numbers follow the pattern odd,odd,even,even,odd,odd,even,even,...

B.) The fourth Fibonacci number is 3.  Every fourth Fibonacci number after that is divisible by 3.

C.) The quotient of every neighboring pair of Fibonacci numbers is exactly 1.618.

D.) Starting with F11, the difference between any Fibonacci number and the Fibonacci number that comes 10 before it (for example, F37-F27) is a number evenly divisible by 11.

E.) The sum of the first n Fibonacci numbers is always exactly 1 less than another Fibonacci number.

Answer:

B E and D

Step-by-step explanation:

B.) The fourth Fibonacci number is 3.  Every fourth Fibonacci number after that is divisible by 3.

D.) Starting with F11, the difference between any Fibonacci number and the Fibonacci number that comes 10 before it (for example, F37-F27) is a number evenly divisible by 11.

E.) The sum of the first n Fibonacci numbers is always exactly 1 less than another Fibonacci number.

<span> A is obviously false.

E is false because it says "exactly 1.618" and the ratio between successive terms varies but approaches the golden number (1 + sqrt5)/2 which is irrational and not exactly 1.618

B is correct. By the way, showing that the first four are multiples of 3 is no proof.
Proof.
F(n + 4) = F(n + 3) + F(n + 2)
= [F(n + 2) + F(n + 1)] + F(n + 2)
= 2*F(n + 2) + F(n + 1)
= 2*[F(n + 1) + F(n)] + F(n + 1)
= 3*F(n + 1) + 2*F(n)
= 3*[F(n) + F(n - 1)] + 2*F(n)
= 5*F(n) + 3*F(n - 1)

If F(n) = 3m, i.e. a multiple of 3 then
F(n + 4) = 3m + 3*F(n - 1) = 3(m + F(n - 1), i.e. also a multiple of 3.

C is correct. In fact Sum [i = 1 to n] F(i) = F(n + 2) - 1 for all n. Proof by induction.

Clearly true for n = 2 because
Sum [i = 1 to 2] F(i) = F(1) + F(2) = 2 = F(4) - 1

Sum [i = 1 to n + 1] F(i) = {Sum [i = 1 to n] F(i)} + F(n + 1)
= F(n + 2) - 1 + F(n + 1) by the assumption true for n
= F(n + 2) + F(n + 1) - 1
= F(n + 3) - 1 by the Fibonacci formula
= F((n + 1) + 2) - 1
which is the same formula with n replaced by n + 1
Hence true for all n by mathematical induction.

D is correct. Proof by induction. I'll leave that to you. </span>

Sam made $147 for 7 hours of work at the same rate how much would he make for 9 hours of work
Olenka [21]
Divide $147 by 7 you’ll get 21, so he’s making 21 dollars an hour, you’ll multiply 21 by 9 which you’ll get $189
so your answer will be $189 for 9 hours of work
hope this helps!
