Answer:
61,940
Step-by-step explanation:
For a recursive sequence of reasonable length, it is convenient to use a suitable calculator for figuring the terms of it. Since each term not only depends on previous terms, but also depends on the term number, it works well to use a spreadsheet for doing the calculations. The formula is easily entered and replicated for as many terms as may be required.

The result of executing the given algorithm is shown in the attachment. (We have assumed that g_1 means g[-1], and that g_2 means g[-2]. These are the starting values required to compute g[0] when k=0.
That calculation looks like ...
g[0] = (0 -1)×g[-1] +g[-2} = (-1)(9) +5 = -4
The attachment shows the last term (for k=8) is 61,940.
