Tutorial Sequences and Summations


DURATION: 2 HOURS
Attempt all questions.

1. Find f (1), f (2), f (3), and f (4) if f (n) is recursively defined by f (0) =
1, and for n = 0, 1, 2, · · · .

(a) f (n + 1) = f (n) + 2.
(b) f (n + 1) = 3f (n).
(c) f (n + 1) = 2f (n) .

2. Find f (2), f (3), f (4), and f (5) if f (n) is recursively defined by f (0) =
−1, f (1) = 2 and for n = 0, 1, 2, · · · .

(a) f (n + 1) = f (n) + 3f (n − 1).


(b) f (n + 1) = 3f (n)2 − 4f (n − 1)2 .
f (n−1)
(c) f (n + 1) = f (n)
.

3. Give a recursive definition of the sequence {an }, n = 1, 2, 3, · · · if .

(a) an = 6n.
(b) an = 2n + 1.
(c) an = 10n .
(d) an = 5.
(e) an = 4n − 2.
(f) an = n(n + 1).
(g) an = n2 .
