(1) In this problem you will work with a new definition.
Given a sequence {an}0, we define its buddy sequence to be the sequence {An}
as follows:
defined
Vn E N, An
= an+1 – An.
For the duration of this problem only, we always use lowercase letters for sequences and
uppercase letters for their buddy sequences, as defined above. You may do the same in your
solutions without having to define the buddy sequence every time.
(a) Let {bn}, be a sequence with all positive terms. Assume that {Bn}, has all negative
terms. Prove that {bn}o converges.
n=0
(b) Prove that if a sequence is convergent, then its buddy sequence converges to zero.
(c) Let {an}, be a sequence. Assume that {An}o converges to zero. Is it necessarily true
that {an}o converges? If so, prove it. If not, give a counterexample and justify why it
works.

Suppose you want to type sequences of vowels (that is, the letters a, e, i, o
and u). However, the e key on your keyboard is defective and every time you
press it, it outputs ee instead of just e.
Let yn the number of sequences of length n you can type in this way.
(i) Find yo, Y1, V2.
(ii) Write a second-order difference equation for the value of yn.
(iii) Solve the difference equation.
