Question 48895: please help! I have been looking at this question for just over a week and ive put it off and done my others now this is one of the last ones!
let p : N x N --> N be the function defined by
p(m,n) ={1 if n=0;
m * p (m, n-1) otherwise;)
what is the value of p (2, 3)?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The fuction is p(m,n)=(1 if n=0;
m* p(m,n-1) otherwise.)
p(2,3)=2*(P(2,2))
=2*(2*p(2,1))
=2*2*(2*p(2,0))
=2*2*2*1 n=0
=8
