Accepted Solution

A:
Answer with explanation:The Fibonacci series is as follows:and it's first ten entries are 0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,.....You can see that after first two terms, each term that is from third term,sum of previous two consecutive terms.1β†’12β†’03β†’1=1+04β†’2=1+15β†’3=2+16β†’5=3+27β†’8=5+38β†’13=5+89β†’21=13+810β†’34=21+13[tex]\rightarrow f_{11}=f_{10}+f_{9}\\\\=34+21\\\\f_{11}=55\\\\\rightarrow f_{12}=f_{11}+f_{10}\\\\=55+34\\\\f_{12}=89\\\\\rightarrow f_{13}=f_{12}+f_{11}\\\\=89+55\\\\f_{13}=144\\\\\rightarrow f_{ia}=f_{i(a-1)}+f_{i(a-2)}[/tex]
