Math Problem Statement

In the Fibonacci sequence {0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, ...}, what is the value of F1?

Solution

This is a multiple-choice question about the Fibonacci sequence, specifically asking for the value of F1F_1.

The Fibonacci sequence is typically defined as: F0=0,F1=1,F2=F0+F1,F3=F1+F2,and so on.F_0 = 0, \, F_1 = 1, \, F_2 = F_0 + F_1, \, F_3 = F_1 + F_2, \, \text{and so on.}

Looking at the sequence provided in the question: {0,1,1,2,3,5,8,}\{0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, \dots\}, we see:

  • F0=0F_0 = 0
  • F1=1F_1 = 1

Thus, the correct value of F1F_1 is 11.

Final Answer:

F1=1\boxed{F_1 = 1}

Tip:

The Fibonacci sequence often appears in nature, such as in the arrangement of leaves, flower petals, and shells, due to its connection to the golden ratio.
