If f (1) =4 and f(4)= f (n-1)-4 then find the value of f(4)
1 answer:
f(1) = 4 is given
f(n) = f(n-1)-4 is the recursive step or rule
f(2) = f(2-1)-4 ... replace n with 2
f(2) = f(1) - 4
f(2) = 4-4 ... replace f(1) with 4
f(2) = 0
----------
Repeat for n = 3
f(n) = f(n-1)-4
f(3) = f(3-1)-4
f(3) = f(2) - 4
f(3) = 0 - 4 .... replace f(2) with 0, which is from f(2) = 0 found earlier
f(3) = -4
---------
Repeat for n = 4
f(n) = f(n-1)-4
f(4) = f(4-1)-4
f(4) = f(3) - 4
f(4) = -4-4 ... plug in f(3) = -4
f(4) = -8
<h3>Answer is -8</h3>

Answer:
It is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
Gr8 job
2/3 + 3/4 = 8/12 + 9/12 = 17/12 = 1 5/12
1 + 5/12 = 12/12 + 5/12 = 17/12 = 1 5/12
2/3 + 3/4 = 1 + 5/12
Answer:
-x^2+5x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
Remove unnecessary parenthesis.
3x-2-x^2+2x+5
Collect like terms.
5x+3-x^2
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms.
