Answer:

a_{n} = 2/3 . 2^n + 1/3 . (-1)^n

Explanation:

Let a_{n} represents number of the message that can transmitted in <em>n </em>microsecond using three of different signals.

One signal requires one microsecond for transmittal: a_{n}-1

Another signal requires two microseconds for transmittal: a_{n}-2

The last signal requires two microseconds for transmittal: a_{n}-2

a_{n}= a_{n-1} + a_{n-2} + a_{n-2} = a_{n-1} + 2a_{n-2}, n ≥  2

In 0 microseconds. exactly 1 message can be sent: the empty message.

a_{0}= 1

In 1 microsecond. exactly 1 message can be sent (using the one signal of one  microseconds:

a_{0}= 1

2- Roots Characteristic equation

Let a_{n} = r^2, a_{n-1}=r and a_{n-2}= 1

r^2 = r+2

r^2 - r - 2 =0                 Subtract r+6 from each side

(r - 2)(n+1)=0                  Factorize

r - 2 = 0 or r +1 = 0       Zero product property

r = 2 or r = -1                 Solve each equation

Solution recurrence relation

The solution of the recurrence relation is then of the form a_{1} = a_{1 r^n 1} + a_{2 r^n 2} with r_{1} and r_{2} the roots of the characteristic equation.

a_{n} =a_{1} . 2^n + a_{2}.(-1)"

Initial conditions :

1 = a_{0} = a_{1} + a_{2}

1 = a_{1} = 2a_{1} - a_{2}

Add the previous two equations

2 = 3a_{1}

2/3 = a_{1}

Determine a_{2} from 1 = a_{1} + a_{2} and a_{1} = 2/3

a_{2} = 1 - a_{1} = 1 - 2 / 3 = 1/3

Thus, the solution of recursion relation is a_{n} = 2/3 . 2^n + 1/3 . (-1)^n

The retina is the part pf the eye that is similar to the film of a camera. It is a thin layer of cells that is located at the back of the eyeball. This part contains photoreceptor cells which respond to light where the neural signals received undergoes complex processing by other neurons in the retina.
