Generate the first 5 terms of this sequence: f(1) = 2 and f(2) = 3, f(n) = f(n - 1) + f(n - 2), for n > 2. 2, 3, 5, 7, 9 2, 3, 4, 7, 11 2, 3, 5, 9, 11 2, 3, 5, 8, 13

OpenStudy (abdullah1995):

alright let's try to do this

OpenStudy (abdullah1995):

what grade are you in

OpenStudy (anonymous):

7th

OpenStudy (abdullah1995):

ok great. what have you tried so far

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nothing really

OpenStudy (abdullah1995):

if you're not going to try it then you're never going to do it ;)

OpenStudy (abdullah1995):

anyhow lets do it together

OpenStudy (abdullah1995):

the question says you have f(1) = 2 and f(2) = 3. it doesn't give you any other information. so it can be concluded that you will use these two values to get your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (abdullah1995):

the general formula they give you for the series is f(n) = f(n - 1) + f(n - 2), for n > 2

OpenStudy (abdullah1995):

where n is any number bigger than 2

OpenStudy (abdullah1995):

so the first number will be 3 then 4 then 5 and so on. 3,4,5,6,7 ---> first five numbers

OpenStudy (abdullah1995):

agreed ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes
