OFFSET

LINKS

Table of n, a(n) for n=0..24.

FORMULA

a(n)=(7/2)3^n-(5/2). (Deutsch)

EXAMPLE

The second term is 8 since a(1) = 3*a(0) + 5 = 3*1 + 5 = 8.

MAPLE

a:=n->(7*3^n-5)/2: seq(a(n), n=0..27);

a[0]:=1: for n from 1 to 27 do a[n]:=3*a[n-1]+5 od: seq(a[n], n=0..27);

MATHEMATICA

a[0] := 1; a[n_] := 3a[n - 1] + 5; Table[a[n], {n, 0, 30}]
