0 0 votes Given :A recursive function $f$ where $f(0) = 2$The recursive rule is $f(n+1) = 2f(n) + n + 1$ for $n \ge 0$ We need to calculate the values sequentially from $f(1)$ up to $f(5)$.For $n = 0$:$$f(0+1) = 2f(0) + 0 + 1$$$$f(1) = 2(2) + 1 = 5$$For $n = 1$:$$f(1+1) = 2f(1) + 1 + 1$$$$f(2) = 2(5) + 2 = 12$$For $n = 2$:$$f(2+1) = 2f(2) + 2 + 1$$$$f(3) = 2(12) + 3 = 27$$For $n = 3$:$$f(3+1) = 2f(3) + 3 + 1$$$$f(4) = 2(27) + 4 = 58$$For $n = 4$:$$f(4+1) = 2f(4) + 4 + 1$$$$f(5) = 2(58) + 5 = 121$$ Answer: $\boxed{f(5) = 121}$ GO Classes answered May 6 GO Classes comment Share Follow 0 reply Please log in or register to add a comment.
