**Transcription for Educational Website**---**Problem Description:**Let \( b_0, b_1, b_2, \ldots \) be defined by the formula \( b_n = 4^n \) for every integer \( n \geq 0 \). Fill in the blanks to show that \( b_0, b_1, b_2, \ldots \) satisfies the recurrence relation \( b_k = 4b_{k-1} - 1 \) for every integer \( k \geq 1 \).**Solution Steps:**1. **Define \( b_k \) and \( b_{k-1} \):** - Let \( k \) be any integer with \( k \geq 1 \). - Substitute \( k \) and \( k-1 \) in place of \( n \), applying the definition of \( b_0, b_1, b_2, \ldots \) to both \( b_k \) and \( b_{k-1} \). - The results are: \[ b_k = 4^k \quad (*) \quad \text{and} \quad b_{k-1} = 4 \] (** refers to these definitions for every \( k \geq 1 \).2. **Derive the Recurrence Relation:** - It follows that for every integer \( k \geq 1 \), \[ 4b_{k-1} - 1 = 4 \left( k - 1 \right) \quad \text{(by substitution from \((*)\))} \] - Simplifying using basic algebra gives: \[ 4(k - 1) - 3 \] - Finally, substitute from the earlier definition: \[ 4k = b_k \]3. **Conclusion:** Thus, \( b_0, b_1, b_2, \ldots \) satisfies the given recurrence relation.---**Additional Resources:**- [Need Help?](#) - Click here for further explanations.**Submission:**- [Submit Answer](#)**Navigation:**- [Details](#)- [Previous Answers](#)- My Notes: [My Notes](#)- **Ask
