Question 17
For a positive integer x, define f(x) such that f(x + a) = f(a × x), where a is an integer and f(1) = 4. If the value of f(1003) = k, then the value of ‘k’ will be:
Solution
Expression : $$f (x + a) = f (a \times x)$$
Also, $$f(1) = 4$$
Now, $$f(1003) = f(1002 + 1) = f(1002 \times 1) = f(1002)$$
Similarly, $$f(1002) = f(1001) = f(1000) = ......... = f(1) = 4$$
$$\therefore f(1003) = k = 4$$
