DIRECTION: Answer the following questions in an A4 size bond paper neatly. You can send it to my messenger with
the file name ECE313midterm_surname.
PART 1.
6. Starting with the first Fibonacci number, Fib(1) = 1 and the second Fibonacci number, Fib(2) = 2, what is the
15th Fibonacci number, Fib(15)?
7. What is Fib(20)?
𝑭𝒊𝒃(𝒏+𝟏)
9. The ratio as n gets larger is said to approach the Golden Ratio which is approximately equal to 1.618.
𝑭𝒊𝒃(𝒏)
𝑭𝒊𝒃(𝒏)
What happens to the inverse of this ratio, ? What number does this quantity approach? How does
𝑭𝒊𝒃(𝒏+𝟏)
this compare to the original ratio?
10. Consider Fib(3) = 2. What do you notice about every third Fibonacci number, i.e. Fib(6), Fib(9), Fib(12), …?
Similarly, look at Fib(4) = 3, then check out every fourth Fibonacci number, i.e., Fib(18), Fib(12), Fib(16), …
What seems to be the pattern behind these sequences generated from Fibonacci number?
11. A house is purchased for Php1,000,000 in 2002. The value of the house is given by the exponential growth
model A=1,000,000e0.645t. Find t when the house would be worth Php5,000,000.
12. The amount of radio active material present at time t is given by A=A0ekt, where A0 is the initial amount, k<0 is
the rate of decay. Radioactive substances are more commonly described in terms of their half-life or the time
required for half of the substance to decompose. Determine the half-life of substance X if after 600 years, a
sample has decayed to 85% of its original mass.
PART 2.
1. Fill in the blanks to rewrite the following statement in three different ways:
There is a person in my class who is at least as old as every person in my class.
a. Some _____ is at least as old as _____.
b. There is a person p in my class such that p is _____.
c. There is a person p in my class with the property that for every person q in my class, p is _____.
4. Find four relations from {a,b} to {x,y} that are not functions from {a,b} to {x,y}.
5. Let A = {4,5,6} and B = {1,3,5} and define relations R, S, and T from A to B as follows:
For all (𝑥, 𝑦) ∈ 𝐴 × 𝐵,
(𝑥, 𝑦) ∈ 𝑅 means 𝑥 ≥ 𝑦
𝑥−𝑦
(𝑥, 𝑦) ∈ 𝑆 means is an integer
2
𝑇 = {(4.7), (6,5), (6,7)}
a. Draw arrow diagrams for R, S and T.
b. Indicate whether any of the relations R, S, and T are functions
