A sequence is defined by the first-order recurrence relation: an=5an-1+3 a0=4 a) Write out the first 5 terms of this sequence. b) Given that: an=A*5n+B Show that A=19/4 and B=-3/4. c) Use mathematical induction to prove that ?n = 19/4 × 5n – 3/4
Observe that the point (1,1,1) satisfies the equation 2. Although we may not be able to write down a formula for z in terms of x and y there is a function z(x,y) that has continuous partial derivatives, is defined for (x,y) near (1,1), and for which z(1,1) 1. For this function find the values of the partials дг/дх (1,1) and дг/ду (1,1). Use this to approximate z(1.1 ,9). Finally, find Эгјах (1,1). If we try to do similar calculations...
