Question

Jeff modeled the number of minutes that he read each day during the first week of the summer. The recursive function, f(x), can be used to determine the number of minutes that he had read after a certain number of days, where x represents the number of days. f(1) = 28 f(x) = f(x - 1) + 8 Use the recursive function to find the number of minutes that Jeff read after 3 days of summer.​

Answer:

  44 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given f(1) = 28.

Using the recursive formula ...

  f(2) = f(1) +8 = 28 +8 = 36

  f(3) = f(2) +8 = 36 +8 = 44

Jeff read 44 minutes after 3 days of summer.
