Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

f(n) = 2f (n − 1) + 3n, where f(1) = -2

n= 2 :  f(2)=2f(2-1)+3(2) =2f(1)+6 = 2(-2)+6=2

n= 3 :  f(3)=2f(3-1)+3(3) =2f(2)+9=2(2)+9=13

n= 4 :  f(4)=2f(4-1)+3(4) =2f(3)+12=2(13)+12=37

n= 5 :  f(5)=2f(2-1)+3(5) =2f(4)+15=2(37)+15=89

x² + 3x + 7 = 0       [ax² + bx + c]

a = 1

b = 3

c = 7

quadratic formula:

    (+/- is this ±)
