The Fibonacci sequence is defined by
                 Â
Find , for n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
Find the first six terms of the sequence whose first term is 1 and whose (n+l)th term is obtained by adding n to the nth term.
Consider the sequence defined by tn = an2 + bn + c. If t2 = 3, t4 = 13 and t7 = 113, show that 3tn = 17n2 – 87n + 115
Here,                                                 ...(i)
Now,                          Â
         4a + 2b + c = 3                                              ...(ii)
                                             Â
          16a + 4b + c = 13                                         ...(iii)
                                          Â
          49a + 7b + c = 113                                        ...(iv)
Subtracting (iii) from (iv), we get  33a + 3b = 100               ...(v)
Subtracting (ii) from (iii), we get   12a + 2b = 10
             6a + b = 5                                                 ...(vi)
Multiplying both sides of (vi) by 3, we get
                18a + 3b = 15                                              ...(vii)
Subtracting (vii) from (v), we get
               Â
Using this value of a in (vi), we get
                Â
Using values of a and b in (ii), we get
Using values of a, b, c in (i), we get
           Â
