f(5)=12 for a geometric sequence that is defined recursively by the formula f(n)=0.3*f(n-1), where n is an integer and n>0. Find f(7). Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

If you would like to find f(7) and round the answer to the nearest hundredth, you can do this using the following steps:

n > 0
f(n) = 0.3 * f(n-1)
f(5) = 12

f(6) = 0.3 * f(6-1) = 0.3 * f(5) = 0.3 * 12 = 3.6
f(7) = 0.3 * f(7-1) = 0.3 * f(6) = 0.3 * 3.6 = 1.08

The correct result would be 1.08.
