Question

100%

Let (an) be the sequence defined by a1 = 5 and
an = 2an-1 – 3 when n > 2. What is a4?

Let (am) be the sequence from the previous question. To show
by induction that an = 2" + 3 for all natural n, the induction
assumption is
ak =
- 2k + 3 and ak =
2ak 1
3 for some natural k > 1.
ak = 2ak 1 - 3 for some natural k > 1.
O ak =
2k + 3 for some natural k > 1.
