1is d period 8??
let f(x) be a function such that f(x-1) +f(x+1)= √2f(x)
then find the period of f(x).

1subs x as x+1
so
f(x)+f(x+2)=√2f(x+1)
subs x as x-1 in d orig eqn
f(x-2)+f(x)=√2f(x-1)
add both
f(x-2)+f(x+2)+2f(x)=√2(f(x-1)+f(x+1))
f(x-2)+f(x+2)+2f(x)=2f(x)
f(x-2)+f(x+2)=0
subx x as x+2
f(x)+f(x+4)=0
subs x as x-2
f(x-4)+f(x)=0
subtract...both
f(x+4)=f(x-4)
subs x as x-4
f(x)=f(x-8)
1okay i got it.. i don't know the answer but it is in the options so i think it's correct
