# How would I solve this? (real analysis I think)

e^(i Pi)+1=0

## Homework Statement

f is a function defined on natural numbers such that

2f(n) * f(2n+1) = f(2n) *[2f(n) + 1] and

8f(n) > f(2n) > 4f(n)

Find value of f(12)

## The Attempt at a Solution

$f(n)=\frac{f(2n)}{2f(2n+1)-2f(2n)}$

$f(12)=\frac{f(24)}{2f(25)-2f(24)}\frac{}{}$

2f(n) > f(n) so f(n) > 0 and f(2n) > 0

Because $\frac{f(2n)}{2f(2n+1)-2f(2n)} > 0$ and f(2n) > 0 we know that

f(2n+1) > f(2n) so $f'(n) > 0$

Other than that, I have no idea. Math level: ODEs

Do you mean that the function f is given by ##f:\mathbb{N}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}##? If so, why are we using derivatives?
