%N G.f.: Sum_{n>=0} (3*n-1)^n * x^n / (1 + (3*n-1)*x)^n.

%C More generally,

%C if Sum_{n>=0} a(n)*x^n = Sum_{n>=0} (b*n+c)^n * x^n / (1 + (b*n+c)*x)^n,

%C then Sum_{n>=0} a(n)*x^n/n! = (2 - 2*(b-c)*x + b*(b-2*c)*x^2)/(2*(1-b*x)^2)

%C so that a(n) = (b*n + (b+2*c)) * b^(n-1) * n!/2 for n>0 with a(0)=1.

%F a(n) = (3*n+1) * 3^(n-1) * n!/2 for n>0 with a(0)=1.

%F E.g.f.: (2 - 8*x + 15*x^2)/(2*(1-3*x)^2).

%e O.g.f.: A(x) = 1 + 2*x + 21*x^2 + 270*x^3 + 4212*x^4 + 77760*x^5 +...

%e where

%e A(x) = 1 + 2*x/(1+2*x) + 5^2*x^2/(1+5*x)^2 + 8^3*x^3/(1+8*x)^3 + 11^4*x^4/(1+11*x)^4 + 14^5*x^5/(1+14*x)^5 +...

%e E.g.f.: E(x) = 1 + 2*x + 21*x^2/2! + 270*x^3/3! + 4212*x^4/4! + 77760*x^5/5! +...

%e where

%e E(x) = 1 + 2*x + 21/2*x^2 + 45*x^3 + 351/2*x^4 + 648*x^5 + 4617/2*x^6 +...

%e which is the expansion of: (2 - 8*x + 15*x^2) / (2 - 12*x + 18*x^2).
