问题 解答题
已知数列{an}满足a1=5,a2=5,an+1=an+6an-1(n≥2,n∈N*).
(1)求证:当n≥2时,{an+2an-1}和{an-3an-1}均为等比数列;
(2)求证:当k为奇数时,

(3)求证:

(n∈N*).
答案

(1)由an+1=an+6an-1(n≥2,n∈N*)得:

an+1+2an=3(an+2an-1),an+1-3an=-2(an-3an-1

且a2+2a1=15,a2-3a1=-10.

∴当n≥2时,{an+2an-1}是首项为15公比为3的等比数列,

{an-3an-1}是首项为-10,公比为-2的等比数列.

(2)由(1)得an+1+2an=15×3n-1,an+1-3an=-10×(-2)n-1

以上两式相减得an=3n-(-2)n
