There's really no such thing as the value of a triangle.
Every triangle has three sides, three angles, a base, a height, and an area,
and there could be problems that ask us to find any one of those.
Whatever we need to find, the process is always the same:
-- Take the information that's given.
-- Gather up everything you can remember that talks about a relationship
between what you're given and what you need to find.
-- Use them together to find the missing value.
if you're solving for the surface area of a rectangular prism then it's 304 :D
<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
f (5) = 7.5
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
<u>The function given is:</u>
f (n+1) = -0.5 f (n)
<u>We are also given that:</u>
first term is 120
<u>This means that:</u>
f (1) = 120
<u>We will get the other terms by substitution as follows:</u>
f (2) = -0.5 f (1) = -0.5(120) = -60
f (3) = -0.5 f(2) = -0.5(60) = 30
f (4) = -0.5 f(3) = -0.5(30) = -15
f (5) = -0.5 f(4) = -0.5(-15) = 7.5
Therefore, f (5) = 7.5
Hope this helps :)
