Linear Recurrence Relations
Limits
What is to be learned?
• When linear recurrence relations have a
limit
• How to calculate the limit
• How to interpret the results
Consider Un+1 = 0.5Un + 8 U0 = 10
U1 = 0.5(10) + 8 = 13
U2 = 0.5(13) + 8 = 14.5
U3 = 15.25
U4 = 15.625
U5 = 15.813
U6 = 15.906
U7 = 15.953
U8 = 15.977
U9 = 15.988
UU1111 = 15.997= 15.997
UU1212 = 15.999= 15.999
UU1313 = 15.999= 15.999
UU1414 = 16.000= 16.000
UU1515 = 16.000= 16.000
““Reaches” aReaches” a
limit of 16limit of 16
Un+1 = 0.5Un + 8 U14 = 16, U15 = 16
Limit = 16
U15 = 0.5(16) + 8
= 16
U16 = 0.5(16) + 8
= 16
etc.
Limit of 16 means does not go over 16
When is there a Limit?
for recurrence relation Un+1 = mUn + c
goes to limit if -1 < m < 1
Finding the Limit
Un+1 = 0.5Un + 8
-1 < m < 1
so as n∞
Equation becomes
L = 0.5L + 8
-0.5L -0.5L
0.5L = 8
L = 8
/0.5 = 16

When is there a Limit?

goes to limit if -1 < m < 1
Finding the Limit
Un+1 = 0.8Un + 10
-1 < m < 1
so as n∞
Equation becomes
L = 0.8L + 10
-0.8L -0.8L
0.2L = 10

Ex Paul Uter’s factory dumps 200kg of yuk
at the end of each day into the nearby
loch.
The council install a filter scheme
that removes 30% of the yuk each day
If the yuk exceeds 700kg, Tony trout
and his pals will perish horribly
Is Tony safe?

Ex Bertie’s balloon has sprung a leak.
It is losing 20% of its air each hour.
To compensate Bertie pumps 10m3
into
it at the end of each hour.
If volume of air drops below 45m3
, the
balloon will crash.
Is Bertie doomed?

Henry’s hedge is causing a bit of annoyance to his
neighbor Brutal Boris. His hedge is increasing is
height by 80cm each year. To compensate Henry
cuts 30% from the height if the hedge each June.
Boris has said that if the height exceeds 2m then he
will do Henry some serious mischief.
Should Henry be worried?
