Table of n, a(n) for n=0..17.

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (18, -74).

Formula

From Philippe Deléham, Dec 03 2008: (Start)

a(n) = 18*a(n-1) - 74*a(n-2), n > 1; a(0)=1, a(1)=9.

G.f.: (1-9*x)/(1-18*x+74*x^2).

a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} A098158(n,k)*9^(2k-n)*7^(n-k). (End)
