(a) S2 will be even if both U1 and U2 are even or both U1 and U2 are odd.
(b) If Sn-1 is even, then we need Un to be even to make Sn even.
(c) If Sn-1 is odd, then we need Un to be odd to make Sn even.
(d) The probability of Sn being even will depend on the probability of Sn-1 being even.
(e) We can calculate the few initial elements of this series. We get:
We can observe that the denominators increase by a factor of 3 for every n. Also, the numerators are alternating between (3n-1)/2 for odd n and (3n+1)/2 for even n. From this, we get the generating functions as:
(f) We know that:
Thus, both the series for converge and we
get:
So, both the series converge to the same limit and we get:
(g) In this case, the recursion formula will be:
We can see that the series converges by taking the difference between the successive terms:
So, this series will be oscillating and will converge only if (1-2p2>0), i.e. if p2<1/2.

that would be incredible. Thank you so much.
8.1. To show xn 2 Xn+1 for n 2 N and to find the value of N EN, consider the function. f: (0, +00) → R and so f(t) = n) Observe that if we restrict the domain of f to N then f(n) = n(n) = xn Therefore, if f is decreasing, then as will {xn} be decreasing. This suggests using methods from...
