If a n follows the recurrence relation a n + 1 = 2 a n − n 2 + n , with a 1 = 3 , then find the value of 1 8 1 3 3 ∣ a 2 0 − a 1 5 ∣ .

I hv never learnt abt z transformation before... why is it needed? is there any wiki on it?? i could get this relation involving n only.. ya a little bit more complex...

but gives the result not as a submultiple..
here a ratio of terms is not asked.. so we can not try to find easier submultiples... and the result gets unaffected...
Then why is it used ?? does z-transformation imply the same function? is it always needed to solve a recurrence relation?? but y = a ∗ x k is not the same function as y = x k

Can you provide me with wiki about this Z transformation. Looks like very useful relation

First, evaluate a 0 , a 1 = 2 a 0 ⇒ a 0 = 2 3
Then, use Z-transform: a n + 1 − 2 a n + n 2 − n = 0
z ( A ( z ) − a 0 ) − 2 A ( z ) + ( z − 1 ) 3 z ( z + 1 ) − ( z − 1 ) 2 z = 0
⇒ A ( z ) = 2 ( z − 2 ) ( z − 1 ) 3 z ( 3 z 3 − 9 z 2 + 9 z − 7 )
⇒ A ( z ) = 2 ( z − 2 ) ( z − 1 ) 3 z ( 3 z 3 − 9 z 2 + 9 z − 7 )
⇒ A ( z ) = z − 1 2 z + ( z − 1 ) 2 z + ( z − 1 ) 3 z ( z + 1 ) − 2 ( z − 2 ) z
Working in the inverse of the Z-transform: a n = 2 + n + n 2 − 2 n − 1
Now: a 2 0 = 4 2 2 − 2 1 9 ; a 1 5 = 2 4 2 − 2 1 4 ;
1 8 1 3 3 ∣ a 2 0 − a 1 5 ∣ = 1 8 1 3 3 2 1 9 − 2 1 4 + 1 8 0 = 2 8
