Find the solution to each of these recurrence relations with the given initial conditions. use an iterative approach such as that used in example 10. a) an = −an−1, a0 = 5 b) an = an−1 + 3, a0 = 1 c) an = an−1 − n, a0 = 4 d) an = 2an−1 − 3, a0 = −1 e) an = (n + 1)an−1, a0 = 2 f ) an = 2nan−1, a0 = 3 g) an = −an−1 + n − 1, a0 = 7
