Problem Statement

Return a single integer only. The problem has been revised so that no final answer is an irrational number, a parameterized expression, a range, a proof, a drawing, a graph, a locus equation, or a region description.

Let a sequence (cn)(c_n) satisfy

c2=2,c3=4,c_2=2,\qquad c_3=4,

and for n4n\ge4,

cn=cn1+cn2.c_n=c_{n-1}+c_{n-2}.

Find c6c_6.

Reasoning Process

To find c6c_6, we use the given recurrence relation cn=cn1+cn2c_n = c_{n-1} + c_{n-2} for n4n \ge 4, starting with the given values c2=2c_2 = 2 and c3=4c_3 = 4.

  1. For n=4n = 4:

    c4=c3+c2=4+2=6c_4 = c_3 + c_2 = 4 + 2 = 6
  2. For n=5n = 5:

    c5=c4+c3=6+4=10c_5 = c_4 + c_3 = 6 + 4 = 10
  3. For n=6n = 6:

    c6=c5+c4=10+6=16c_6 = c_5 + c_4 = 10 + 6 = 16

The value of c6c_6 is 16.

\boxed{16}
