Answer:
f) a[n] = -(-2)^n +2^n
g) a[n] = (1/2)((-2)^-n +2^-n)
Step-by-step explanation:
Both of these problems are solved in the same way. The characteristic equation comes from ...
a[n] -k²·a[n-2] = 0
Using a[n] = r^n, we have ...
r^n -k²r^(n-2) = 0
r^(n-2)(r² -k²) = 0
r² -k² = 0
r = ±k
a[n] = p·(-k)^n +q·k^n . . . . . . for some constants p and q
We find p and q from the initial conditions.
__
f) k² = 4, so k = 2.
a[0] = 0 = p + q
a[1] = 4 = -2p +2q
Dividing the second equation by 2 and adding the first, we have ...
2 = 2q
q = 1
p = -1
The solution is a[n] = -(-2)^n +2^n.
__
g) k² = 1/4, so k = 1/2.
a[0] = 1 = p + q
a[1] = 0 = -p/2 +q/2
Multiplying the first equation by 1/2 and adding the second, we get ...
1/2 = q
p = 1 -q = 1/2
Using k = 2^-1, we can write the solution as follows.
The solution is a[n] = (1/2)((-2)^-n +2^-n).
If we work it through:
70mph is 11mph less than 3 times the fastest running speed for a man.
So 70 + 11 = 81mph is 3 times the fastest running speed for a man.

Answer:
There are 7,725 square feet of grass on the trapezoidal field
Step-by-step explanation:
Here in this question, we are interested in calculating the square feet of grass present on the trapezoidal field.
What this question is actually asking us is to calculate the area of the trapezoid-shaped grass field.
To calculate this area, what we need to do
simply is to use the formula for the area of a trapezoid.
Mathematically, the area of a trapezoid can be calculated using the formula;
Area of trapezoid = 1/2 * (a + b) * h
where a and b refers to the length of the parallel lengths of the trapezoid and h refers to the height of the trapezoid.
From the question;
a, b = 81ft and 125 ft
h = 75 ft
Substituting these values, we have :
Area = 1/2 * (81 + 125) * 75
Area = 1/2 * 206 * 75 = 83 * 75 = 7,725 ft^2
