I need help with the following question

Consider the fol lowing recurrence: 3 ifnzl T\": 5 in=2 EarnlnE ifne3 Guess that an upper bound for an has the form Tn E on + I). Find integers a and t: that t this constraint for every n. a must be as small as possible, and b must then be as small as possible for your choice of a. (Hint: Use constructive induction}
