Question

If f(1)=2f(1)=2 and f(n)=f(n-1)^2-n

Answer 1

Answer:

f(4)=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(1)=2

f(n)=f(n-1)^2-n

If n=2

f(2)=f(2-1)^2-2

f(2)=f(1)^2-2

f(2)=2^2-2

f(2)=4-2

f(2)=2

If n=3

f(3)=f(3-1)^2 - 3

f(3)=f(2)^2 - 3

f(3)=2^2-3

f(3)=4-3

f(3)=1

if n=4

f(4)=f(4-1)^2 - 4

f(4)=f(3)^2 - 4

f(4)=1^2 - 4

f(4)=1-4

f(4)=-3
