Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (10,-35,50,-24).
FORMULA
a(n) = 6*4^n-9*3^n+5*2^n-1.
a(n) = 10*a(n-1)-35*a(n-2)+50*a(n-3)-24*a(n-4). - Colin Barker, Feb 22 2015
G.f.: -2*x*(12*x^3-25*x^2+13*x-3) / ((x-1)*(2*x-1)*(3*x-1)*(4*x-1)). - Colin Barker, Feb 22 2015
