F(n+1)=f(n)-5. If f(1)=100, what is f(6)
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

<em>75</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

f(1) = 100

f(n+1) = f(n) - 5

Solve for:

f(6)

Solution:

f(1) = 100

f(2) = f(1) - 5 = 100 - 5 = 100 - 1 x 5 = f(1) - 1 x 5

f(3) = f(2) - 5 = 100 - 5 - 5 = 100 - 2 x 5 = f(1)  - 2 x 5

...

f(n) = f(n - 1) - 5 = 100 - (n-1) x 5 = f(1) - (n-1) x 5

=> f(6) = f(1) - (6-1) x 5 = 100 - 5 x 5 = 100 - 25 = 75

Hope this helps!

Find the solution of Equation: (3x-2)/(x+3)-1=(3x-3)/(x+1)-2
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Solution tends to infinity

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

(3x-2)/(x+3)-1=(3x-3)/(x+1)-2

This can also be expressed as;

(3x-2)/x+2 = 3x-3/x-1

3x-2/x+2 = 3(x-1)/x-1

3x-2/x+2 = 3

Cross multiply

3x-2 = 3(x+2)

3x-2 =3x+6

Collect like terms

3x-3x =6+3

0x = 9

x = 9/0

x = infinity

Hence the expression had no solution. It tends to infinity
