The next step is to solve the recurrence, but let's back up a bit. You should have found that the ODE in terms of the power series expansion for


which indeed gives the recurrence you found,

but in order to get anywhere with this, you need at least three initial conditions. The constant term tells you that

, and substituting this into the recurrence, you find that

for all

.
Next, the linear term tells you that

, or

.
Now, if

is the first term in the sequence, then by the recurrence you have



and so on, such that

for all

.
Finally, the quadratic term gives

, or

. Then by the recurrence,




and so on, such that

for all

.
Now, the solution was proposed to be

so the general solution would be


0.004 is 0.4% in decimal form
She bought 54 child tickets and 19 adult tickets.
Step-by-step explanation:
No. of tickets purchased = 73
Cost of tickets = $771
Cost of one child ticket = $9
Cost of one adult ticket = $15
Let,
Child ticket = x
Adult ticket = y
According to given statement;
x+y=73 Eqn 1
9x+15y=771 Eqn 2
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 9;

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2;

Dividing both sides by 6;

Putting y=19 in Eqn 1

She bought 54 child tickets and 19 adult tickets.
