$$f(n+1)=\frac12 (3f(n)+1)$$
Find $f(p)$ in terms of $p$ and $k$, given $f(1)=k$.

I managed to find summaton of $f(r)$ from $1$ to $p$ given the value of $f(p)$ but couldnt solve this specific question
but im not sure if its solvable or not either
this is again a personal endeavour of mine, not a problem given by my school or teachers.
