Find the general term of {a_n}

Assoli18 [71]

From the given recurrence, it follows that

$a_{n+1} = 2a_n + 1 \\\\ a_{n+1} = 2(2a_{n-1} + 1) = 2^2a_{n-1} + 1 + 2 \\\\ a_{n+1} = 2^2(2a_{n-2}+1) + 1 + 2 = 2^3a_{n-2} + 1 + 2 + 2^2 \\\\ a_{n+1} = 2^3(2a_{n-3} + 1) + 1 + 2 + 2^2 = 2^4a_{n-3} + 1 + 2 + 2^2 + 2^3$

and so on down to the first term,

$a_{n+1} = 2^na_1 + \displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^{n-1}2^k$

(Notice how the exponent on the 2 and the subscript of <em>a</em> in the first term add up to <em>n</em> + 1.)

Denote the remaining sum by <em>S</em> ; then

$S = 1 + 2 + 2^2 + \cdots + 2^{n-1}$

Multiply both sides by 2 :

$2S = 2 + 2^2 + 2^3 + \cdots + 2^n$

Subtract 2<em>S</em> from <em>S</em> to get

$S - 2S = 1 - 2^n \implies S = 2^n - 1$

So, we end up with

$a_{n+1} = 4\cdot2^n + S \\\\ a_{n+1} = 2^2\cdot2^n + 2^n-1 \\\\ a_{n+1} = 2^{n+2} + 2^n - 1 \\\\\implies \boxed{a_n = 2^{n+1} + 2^{n-1} - 1}$

Find the answer to 3(q+34)=2

xz_007 [3.2K]

Hey there!

3(q + 34)= 2

First distribute:

3(q) + 3(34)

3(q) = 3q

3(34) = 102

New equation: 3q + 102 = 2

Subtract by 102 on each of your sides:

3q + 102 - 102 = 2 - 102

Cancel out: 102 - 102 because it gives us 0

Keep: 2 - 102 because it helps us solve for our q

2 - 102 = - 100

New equation: 3q = -100

Divide both sides by 3

3q/3 = -100/3

Cancel out: -3q/3 because it gives us 1

Keep: -100/3 because it gives us the answer for q

Answer: q = -100/3 ✅

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
