Let an = –3an-1 + 10an-2 with initial conditions a1 = 29 and a2 = –47. a) write the first 5 terms of the recurrence relation. b) solve this recurrence relation. show your reasoning. c) using the explicit formula you found in part b, evaluate a5. you must show that you are using the equation from part b.

We can express the recurrence,

in matrix form as

By substitution,

and continuing in this way we would find that

Diagonalizing the coefficient matrix gives us

which makes taking the -th power trivial:

So we have

and in particular,

answer: it's d

step-by-step explanation:

i only know the sequence of arithmetic it adds the first is 5+4 then it goes up as it adds to then it is 9+5 then 14+6 then to 20+7 and so on. 5,9,14,20,27,35.
