choices?

anonymous · Answer

f(1) = 6 and f(n ) = f(n - 1) + 8; n > 1
	f(1) = 8 and f(n ) = f(n - 1) + 6; n > 1
	f(1) = 8 and f(n ) = f(n - 1) + 6n; n > 1
	f(1) = 6 and f(n ) = f(n - 1) + 8n; n > 1

Choice (2) is correct.

Since the first term is 8, so f(1) = 8, so you should have immediately eliminated choices A and D.
