Answer:

24

Explanation:

f(n) = f(n − 1) + 3

if n = 7 => f(7) = f(7-1) + 3 = f(6) + 3

if n = 6 => f(6) = f(6-1) + 3 = f(5) + 3

if n = 5 => f(5) = f(5-1) + 3 = f(4) + 3

if n = 4 => f(4) = f(4-1) + 3 = f(3) + 3

if n = 3 => f(3) = f(3-1) + 3 = f(2) + 3

if n = 2 => f(2) = f(2-1) + 3 = f(1) + 3

if f(1) = 6 then f(2) = 9

f(3) = 12

f(4) = 15

f(5) = 18

f(6) = 21

f(7) = 24
