2 n J n = x ( J n − 1 + J n + 1 )
2 x J n − 1 = n J n − 2 x J n + 1 ( 1 )
n → n + 2 in ( 1 )
2 x J n + 1 = ( n + 2 ) J n + 2 − 2 x J n + 3
Put the value of 2 x J n + 1 in ( 1 )
We get 2 x J n − 1 = n J n − ( n + 2 ) J n + 2 + 2 x J n + 3 ( 2 )
Now n → n + 4 in ( 1 )
Find value of 2 x J n + 3 and place it in ( 2 )
On repeating these steps we finally get
2 x J n − 1 = n J n − ( n + 2 ) J n + 2 + ( n + 4 ) J n + 4 − . . . . . . . .
In this case n = 2
Thus we are left with
2 1 ∫ x 2 J 1 d x = 2 x 2 J 2 + c
