Q 1.(a).
The given recurrence is
……………..(i)
The characteristic equation of (i) is x
2
-7x+12=0 => x=3 or 4
Homogenous solution of (i) is an= A13
n
+A24
n
For particular solution We assume that
an=A2
n
an+1=A2
n+1
an+2= A2
n+1
Now put this value in equation (i), we get
A2
n
- 7A2

 2n(A22-7A2+12A
-1)= 0
 4A-14A+12A-1=0
 A=1/2=0.5
The general solution of give equation is

Q 1.(b). The given recurrence is
……(i)
The characteristic equation of (i) is x
2
-7x+12=0 => x=3 or 4
Homogenous solution of (i) is an= A13
n
+A24
n
For particular solution We assume that
an=A0 + A1 n +A2n
2
an+1=A0 + A1 (n+1) +A2 (n+1)
2

an+2=A0 + A1 (n+2) +A2 (n+2)
2
Now put this value in equation (i), we get
A0 + A1 n +A2n
2
-7(A0 + A1 (n+1) +A2 (n+1)

2
+2n+1)+12n
2
)=n
2

 6A0 +A1(6n-5)+A2(6n
2
-10n-3)=n
2

 6A0- 5A1-3A2=0 ………(ii)
And 6A1-10A2=0 …………(iii)
And 6A2=1 => A2 =1/6
Now put the value of A2 in equation (iii) ,we get ⁄

Now put the value of A2 and A1 in equation (ii)
( ) ⁄
= ⁄

The general solution of give equation is an= A13

For particular solution We assume that
an=2
n
( A0 + A1 n +A2n

an+1=2
n+1
( A0 + A1 (n+1) +A2 (n+1)
2
)
an+2=2
n+2
( A0 + A1 (n+2) +A2 (n+2)
2

Now put this value in equation (i), we get
2
n+2
( A0 + A1 (n+2) +A2 (n+2)
2
) -7(2
n+1
( A0 + A1 (n+1) +A2 (n+1)

n

 A0(
-7 +12( )) +A1 (
( )-7 ( )+12( ) )
+A2((
( ) - 7( ( ) )+12( ) ) = n22n

 A0(
- +12( )) +A1(
( )-14 ( )+12( ) )
+A2((

Q 1.(d). The given recurrence is …………………..(i)
For the given recurrence characteristic equation is x-2=0 =>x=2
the homogenous solution of given recurrence is an=A2
n
For particular solution we assume that
( ) ( )
Now put this value in equation (i)

Now equating the coefficient of both side we get the following equation
…………(a)
( ) ………(b)
From equation (b)



Put the value of A2 in equation (a), we get

Q 1. (e)
The given recurrence is ……….(i)
The characteristic equation of given recurrence is

the homogenous solution of given recurrence is
For particular solution We assume that
an=n( A + B n ) where A and B are constants
an+1=n+1( A + B (n+1) )
an+2=n+2( A + B (n+2))
now put this values in equation (i) we will get the...
