G. C. Greubel, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..500
Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (9,-8).
FORMULA
a(n) = 8*a(n-1)-16, a(0)=1.
a(n) = 9*a(n-1) - 8*a(n-2), a(0)= 1, a(1)= -8, for n>1.
G.f.: (1-17x)/(1-9x+8x^2).
a(n) = Sum_{0<=k<=n} A112555(n,k)*(-9)^(n-k).
E.g.f.: (1/7)*(16*exp(x) - 9*exp(8*x)). - G. C. Greubel, Apr 07 2016
