10] If f( x ) eax b , show that its leading differences form a geometic progression
Solution eax b ea ( x h )b eax b eax b eah eax b [eah 1]eax b
f( x ) e ax b [eah 1]eax b
2 f( x ) [ f( x )] [[e ah 1]eax b ]
[eah 1]eax b [eah 1][eah 1]eax b [eah 1]2eax b
3 f( x ) [2 f( x )] [[e ah 1]2e ax b ]
[eah 1]2 eax b [eah 1]2[eah 1]eax b [eah 1]3eax b
Consider the ratios
2 f( x ) [e ah 1]2e ax b 3 f( x ) [eah 1]3eax b
eah 1, eah 1
f( x ) [eah 1]eax b 2 f( x ) [eah 1]2eax b
2 f( x ) 3 f( x )
.
f( x ) 2 f( x )
Hence f( x ), 2 f( x ), 3 f( x ) form a geometic progression .
