In general, you cannot prove that because it is not true.
2 is rational. √2 is not.
For each increment in x, the output is multiplied by 2. The function could be written the way a geometric sequence can be written:
... f(x) = 5·2^(x-1)
Or, it could be simplified to ...
... f(x) = (5/2)·2^x
The first 5 terms will be
... 5, 10, 20, 40, 80
