Answer:

  a(x)=\dfrac{1}{1+2x}

Step-by-step explanation:

The generating function a(x) produces a power series ...

  a(x)=a_0+a_1x+a_2x^2+a_3x^3+\dots

where the coefficients are the elements of the given sequence.

We observe that the given sequence has the recurrence relation ...

  a_0=1;a_n=-2a_{n-1} \quad\text{for n $>$ 0}

This can be rearranged to ...

  a_n+2a_{n-1}=0

We can formulate this in terms of a(x) as follows, then solve for a(x).

\sum\limits^{\infty}_{n=1} {a_{n}x^n} =a(x)-a_0 \quad\text{and}\\\\\sum\limits^{\infty}_{n=1} {2a_{n-1}x^n} =(2x)a(x) \quad\text{so}\\\\\sum\limits^{\infty}_{n=1} {(a_n+2a_{n-1})x^n}=0=a(x)-a_0+2xa(x)\\\\a(x)=\dfrac{a_0}{1+2x}=\dfrac{1}{1+2x}

The generating function is ...

  a(x) = 1/(1+2x)

hram777 [196]
<span>Calling the company that holds the car loan and asking them about other repayment options is the best tactic. This allows the loan holder to negotiate terms that would be acceptable to both sides, as well as showing that Angela is trying to make a good-faith effort to repay what she can. While it may increase the overall length of time that her payments require, it also shows that she is not going to outright default on the payments.</span>
