Question

3) $I_n$ is the amount invested in period $n$ (measured in years), where $I_n = 0.9I_{n-1} + 60$, and where the quantities are given in millions of euro. For each of the initial investments (at $n = 0$), €10 m, €800 m, (a) solve the difference equation, (b) calculate the number of years taken for the investment to reach €400 million.
