Vincenzo Librandi, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..1000

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (3,-2).

FORMULA

a(n) = 2*a(n-1) - 3.

a(n) = 3*a(n-1) - 2*a(n-2).

a(n) = A005009(n) + 3, a(0)=10.

G.f.: (10-13*x)/((2*x-1)*(x-1)).

E.g.f.: 7*exp(2*x) + 3*exp(x). - G. C. Greubel, Sep 12 2017

EXAMPLE

At n=0, a(0)=7*2^0+3=10. At n=1, a(1)=7*2^1+3=17.
