Please answer circled
(a) Fibonacci posed the following problem: Suppose that rabbits live forever and that every month each pair produces a new pair which becomes productive at age 2 months. If we start with one nowoorn pa y many
pairs of rabbits will we have in the nth month? Show that the answer is f, where (f.)} is the Fibonacci sequence defined recursively by the following conditions.
fn = fn-1+ fn - 2

From
Let r, be the number of rabbit pairs in the nth month. Since we're starting with one newborn pair, r, = 1, and since each pair of rabbits only produces a new pair when the pair is 2 mor hs old, r, -
the third month forward, thke original pair of ra bits will begin to produce a news of rabbits each month.
