Solve the recurrence relation.
A(1)=2
A(n) =2P(n-1)+n2^n. For n>=2

Consider this data sequence: "3 11 5 5 5 2 4 6 6 7 3 -8". any value that is the same as the immediately preceding value is considered a consecutive duplicate. in this example, there are three such consecutive duplicates: the 2nd and 3rd 5s and the second 6. note that the last 3 is not a consecutive duplicate because it was preceded by a 7. write some code that uses a loop to read such a sequence of non-negative integers , terminated by a negative number. when the code finishes executing, the number of consecutive duplicates encountered is printed. in this case, 3 would be printed. assume the availability of a variable, stdin, that references a scanner object associated with standard input. that is, stdin = new scanner(system. in); is given.

Dean wants a quick way to look up staff members by their staff id. in cell q3, nest the existing vlookup function in an iferror function. if the vlookup function returns an error result, the text “invalid staff id” should be displayed by the formula. (hint: you can test that this formula is working by changing the value in cell q2 to 0, but remember to set the value of cell q2 back to 1036 when the testing is complete.)
