Consider the following recurrence relation and initial conditions.
t_(k)=14t_(k-1)-49t_(k-2), for each integer k>=2
t_(0)=1,t_(1)=7
(a) Suppose a sequence of the form 1,t,t^(2),t^(3),dots,t^(n)dots, where t!=0, satisfies the given recurrence relation (but not
necessarily the initial conditions). What is the characteristic equation of the recurrence relation?
What value of t is a solution to this equation?
t=
(b) Suppose a sequence t_(0),t_(1),t_(2),dots satisfies the given initial conditions as well as the recurrence relation. Fill in the
blanks below to derive an explicit formula for t_(0),t_(1),t_(2),dots in terms of n.
It follows from part (a) and the single hat(v) roots theorem that for some constants C and D, the terms of
t_(0),t_(1),t_(2),dots satisfy the equation t_(n)=|, for every integer n>=0.
Solve for C and D by setting up a system of two equations in two unknowns using the facts that t_(0)=1 and t_(1)=7.
