Are you looking for answers to these questions? here you can get the proper answers of this question with proper process.  you should follow those steps which is mention below.

We know that the first term is 18. 

\( f(1)=18 \)

\( f(2)=f(1)−2=18−2=16 \)

\( f(3)=f(2)−2=16−2=14 \)

\( f(4)=f(3)−2=14−2=12 \)

\( f(5)=f(4)−2=12−2=10 \)

if you have any doubts regarding this question please let know. i am waiting for your reply.
