Find f(5) for this sequence: f(1)=2 and f(2)=3, f(n)=f(1)+f(2)+f(n-1), for n>2 Please help!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

f(3) = 2 + 5 + 5 f(3) = 12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, is that the end of it, or is there more to find f(5)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nope, I think this is it. It's what I got.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You do know recursive formulas, correct? (Not personal, just making sure.)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am in year four college algebra so I know a few things lol.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol, just making sure, I don't want to get this wrong. Thanks!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lol, I understand. Your welcome!(:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wait, would f(3) = 12 be the answer? Sorry if I'm bothering you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's fine, and give me some of your answer choices so I can help you a little better.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's not a multiple choice question, you type it in. :c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh no! Lol, I googled your question. I hope this can help. http://openstudy.com/study#/updates/523c7d58e4b00182897efbd3
