Q. an=−8an−1−5an−2a_n= -8a_{n-1}-5a_{n-2}
  1. Identify Terms: Identify the terms in the equation: ana_n, an−1a_{n-1}, and an−2a_{n-2}.
  2. Rearrange Equation: Rearrange the equation to isolate ana_n on one side: an=−8an−1−5an−2.a_n = -8a_{n-1} - 5a_{n-2}.
  3. Substitute Values: Substitute values for an−1a_{n-1} and an−2a_{n-2} if given, or express ana_n in terms of an−1a_{n-1} and an−2a_{n-2}.
  4. Cannot Simplify Further: Since no specific values for an−1a_{n-1} and an−2a_{n-2} are provided, we can't simplify further without additional information.
