The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the 12th term of the sequence defined by the recurrence relation \( P_{n+1} = P_n - P_{n-1} \) with initial conditions \( P_0 = 0 \) and \( P_1 = 1 \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the initial conditions**: - \( P_0 = 0 \) - \( P_1 = 1 \) 2. **Calculate subsequent terms using the recurrence relation**: - **For \( n = 1 \)**: \[ P_2 = P_1 - P_0 = 1 - 0 = 1 \] - **For \( n = 2 \)**: \[ P_3 = P_2 - P_1 = 1 - 1 = 0 \] - **For \( n = 3 \)**: \[ P_4 = P_3 - P_2 = 0 - 1 = -1 \] - **For \( n = 4 \)**: \[ P_5 = P_4 - P_3 = -1 - 0 = -1 \] - **For \( n = 5 \)**: \[ P_6 = P_5 - P_4 = -1 - (-1) = 0 \] - **For \( n = 6 \)**: \[ P_7 = P_6 - P_5 = 0 - (-1) = 1 \] - **For \( n = 7 \)**: \[ P_8 = P_7 - P_6 = 1 - 0 = 1 \] - **For \( n = 8 \)**: \[ P_9 = P_8 - P_7 = 1 - 1 = 0 \] - **For \( n = 9 \)**: \[ P_{10} = P_9 - P_8 = 0 - 1 = -1 \] - **For \( n = 10 \)**: \[ P_{11} = P_{10} - P_9 = -1 - 0 = -1 \] - **For \( n = 11 \)**: \[ P_{12} = P_{11} - P_{10} = -1 - (-1) = 0 \] 3. **Final Result**: - The 12th term \( P_{12} \) is \( 0 \). ### Conclusion: The 12th term of the series \( P(n+1) \) starting from \( n = 0 \) is \( \boxed{0} \).
