some assistence please

 

(b) Consider the sequence \((x_n)_n\), \(n \in \mathbb{N} \cup \{0\}\) defined recursively as

\[ x_n = 7x_{n-1} - 10x_{n-2}, \quad x_0 = 2, \, x_1 = 3. \]

Show that the \(n\)th term is given by the closed formula

\[ x_n = \frac{1}{3} \left( 7 \cdot 2^n - 3^n \right). \]
