Table of n, a(n) for n=0..28.

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

Formula

a(n) = 2*(a(n-1)+1) with a(0) = 7.

a(n) = 3*a(n-1) -2*a(n-2). G.f.: (7-5*x) / ((2*x-1)*(x-1)). - R. J. Mathar, May 02 2010

a(n) = 2*A052996(n+1) for n > 0. - Bruno Berselli and Vincenzo Librandi, Aug 27 2010

a(n) = A033484(n+2) - A007283(n). - M. F. Hasler, Dec 11 2018

Example

For n = 1, a(1) = 2*(7+1) = 16;
for n = 2, a(2) = 2*(16+1) = 34;
for n = 3, a(3) = 2*(34+1) = 70.
