Answer:
A)
B)
C) for n = 2
= 1
for n = 3
= 3
for n = 4
= 8
for n = 5
= 19
Step-by-step explanation:
A) A recurrence relation for the number of bit strings of length n that contain a pair of consecutive Os can be represented below
if a string (n ) ends with 00 for n-2 positions there are a pair of consecutive Os therefore there will be : strings
therefore for n ≥ 2
The recurrence relation for the number of bit strings of length 'n' that contains consecutive Os
b ) The initial conditions
The initial conditions are :
C) The number of bit strings of length seven containing two consecutive 0s
here we apply the re occurrence relation and the initial conditions
for n = 2
= 1
for n = 3
= 3
for n = 4
= 8
for n = 5
= 19
