Consider the recursive function. f(1) = 2
f(n) = 5. (n 1), for n > 2

Which statement is true?
A. The value of f(6) is 1/125 times the value of f(3)
B. The value of f(6) is 2 times the value of f(3)
C. The value of f(6) is 125 times the value of f(3)
D. The value of f(6) is 15 times the value of f(3)

  C.  125 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the recursion relation, we have ...

  f(4) = 5·f(3)

  f(5) = 5·f(4) = 5·(5·f(3)) = 25·f(3)

  f(6) = 5·f(5) = 5·(25·f(3)) = 125·f(3) . . . . matches choice C
