For $x_2$, $x^2 \over 1-x$ because there is no way of satisfying the restriction for $n<2$. For $x_3$, $1 \over 1-x^4$ as it is impossible for $n \not\equiv 0 ({\rm mod} 4)$ and $1+x+x^2+x^3$ for $x_4$ (because it cannot be all of the partition for $n$ more than $4$). One must also consider a fictional $x_5$ to account for the solutions which sum to less than $n$. This has the generating function $1 \over 1-x$. The combined possible number of solutions $c_n$ is the value of the coefficient for $x^n$ in their product. The product is $$x^2(1+x+x^2+x^3) \over (1-x)^3(1-x^4),$$ but by the fact that $$1+x+x^2+x^3={1-x^4 \over 1-x},$$ this is equal to $$x^2 \over (1-x)^4.$$ + +This, in closed form, becomes $${x^2 \over 6}\sum^\infty_{n=0} n(n-1)(n-2)x^{n-2} += \sum^\infty_{n=0} {n(n-1)(n-2) \over 6}x^n += \sum^\infty_{n=0} {n \choose 3}x^{n-1} += \sum^\infty_{n=-1} {n+1 \choose 3}x^n,$$ +giving a number of solutions $n+1 \choose 3$ + + + +\noindent {\bf Q3)} %#9 + +$$\sum^\infty_{n=0} {n \choose p}x^n$$ + +Note: in this problem and Q2, I used 0 and infinity as my bounds (mostly) because ${k \choose n}=0$ for $k<0$ and $k>n$. + +\noindent {\bf Q4)} %#21 + +\pre{a.} +$a_n = 7^n$ + +\pre{b.} +$$x^2e^{3x} += x^2\sum^\infty_{n=0} {(3x)^n \over n!} += x^2\sum^\infty_{n=0} {3^n x^n \over n!} += \sum^\infty_{n=0} {3^n x^{n+2} \over n!} += \sum^\infty_{n=2} {3^{n-2} x^n \over {n-2}!} += \sum^\infty_{n=2} {3^{n-2} x^n \over {n-2}!} += \sum^\infty_{n=2} {3^{n-2}(n)(n-1) x^n \over n!}.$$ + +This shows $a_n = n(n-1)3^n$. + +\pre{c.} +$a_n = (-1)^n n!$ + +\pre{d.} +\def\mod#1{\thinspace(\thinspace{\rm mod} #1)} +$$e^{x^4} = 1 + x^4 + {x^8 \over 2!} \dots $$ +$$a_n = \left\{{ 0 : n\not\equiv 0 \mod{4} \atop {n! \over {n\over 4}!}: n\equiv 0\mod{4} }\right\}$$ + +\bye -- cgit
