Expert Solution
Step 1

Take n =0

a0=00-12=0 hence it is true for n= 0

take n= 1

a1=11-12=0

So it is also true for n=1

check for n=2

a2=22-12=1

So it is also true for n=2

check for n=3

a3=33-12=3

Now check for a3  by using the given relation

a3=3a2-3a1+a0= 31-30+0=3

So it is also true for n =3
