Show that the Fibonacci numbers satisfy the recurrence relation fn = 5fn−4 + 3fn−5 for n = 5, 6, 7, . . . , together with the in

Sonja [21]

Answer with step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the recurrence relation

$f_n=5f_{n-4}+3f_{n-5}$

for n=5,6,7,..

Initial condition

$f_0=0,f_1=1,f_2=1,f_3=2,f_4=3$

We have to show that Fibonacci numbers satisfies the recurrence relation.

The recurrence relation of Fibonacci numbers

$f_n=f_{n-1}+f_{n-2}$ , $f_0=0,f_1=1$

Apply this

$f_n=(f_{n-2}+f_{n-3})+f_{n-2}=2f_{n-2}+f_{n-3}$

$f_n=2(f_{n-3}+f_{n-4})+f_{n-3}=3f_{n-3}+2f_{n-4}$

$f_n=3(f_{n-4}+f_{n-5})+2f_{n-4}=5f_{n-4}+3f_{n-5}$

Substitute n=2

$f_2=f_1+f_0=1+0=1$

$f_3=f_2+f_1=1+1=2$

$f_4=f_3+f_2=2+1=3$

Hence, the Fibonacci numbers satisfied the given recurrence relation .

Now, we have to show that $f_{5n}$ is divisible by 5 for n=1,2,3,..

Now replace n by 5n

$f_{5n}=5f_{5n-4}+3f_{5n-5}$

Apply induction

Substitute n=1

$f_5=5f_1+3f_0=5+0=5$

It is true for n=1

Suppose it is true for n=k

$f_{5k}=5f_{5k-4}+3f_{5k-5}$ is divisible 5

Let $f_{5k}=5q$

Now, we shall prove that for n=k+1 is true

$f_{5k+5}=5f_{5k+5-4}+3f_{5k+5-5}=5f_{5k+1}+3f_{5k}=5f_{5k+1}+3(5q)$

$f_{5k+5}=5(f_{5k+1}+3q)$

It is multiple of 5 .Therefore, it is divisible by 5.

It is true for n=k+1

Hence, the $f_{5n}$ is divisible by 5 for n=1,2,3,..

Factor the polynomial expression 15x^2 - 2x - 8

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

(3 x + 2) (5 x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the following:

15 x^2 - 2 x - 8

Factor the quadratic 15 x^2 - 2 x - 8. The coefficient of x^2 is 15 and the constant term is -8. The product of 15 and -8 is -120. The factors of -120 which sum to -2 are 10 and -12. So 15 x^2 - 2 x - 8 = 15 x^2 - 12 x + 10 x - 8 = 5 x (3 x + 2) - 4 (3 x + 2):

5 x (3 x + 2) - 4 (3 x + 2)

Factor 3 x + 2 from 5 x (3 x + 2) - 4 (3 x + 2):

Answer: (3 x + 2) (5 x - 4)

Georgie joins a gym. She pays $25 to sign up and then $15 each monthLabel the y-intercept, the slope, and your axes.

Degger [83]

The first thing you should do for this case is to find the equation of the line that best suits the problem and then plot it.

Let X: number of months and: amount paid.

The equation of the line is
y = 15x + 25 y-intercept = 25

the slope = 15

Answer:

Georgie pays (y axis) $ 15 dollars (the spole) monthly (x-axis) in the gym with a $ 25 registration (y -intercept)
