Original question and givens

Use the whole recurrence a_n=a_(n−1)+a_(n−2) for every n≥2, initial a_0=14, a_1=15, and x=1/5 with |x|<1/2. Give (a0, a1, coefficient_preview, x, numerator, denominator, analytic_value, certificate).

  • G001 — Use the whole recurrence a_n=a_(n−1)+a_(n−2) for every n≥2, initial a_0=14, a_1=15, and x=1/5 with |x|<1/2. Give (a0, a1, coefficient_preview, x, numerator, denominator, analytic_value, certificate).

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Conditions: none

The ten terms preview a whole recurrence.Take C=max(|a0|,|a1|);induction gives |a_n|<=C*2^n,so |x|<1/2 ensures absolute convergence and valid reindexing.Degree0 leaves a0,degree1 leaves(a1−a0)x,and all later coefficients cancel.The denominator exceeds1/4.This sufficient domain is not an exact radius or a termwise-derivative claim.
