Prove Theorem $6:$Suppose that $\{a_{n}\}$ satisfies the liner nonhomogeneous recurrence relation $$a_{n} = c_{1}a_{n-1} + c_{2}a_{n-2} + \dots + c_{k}a_{n-k} + F(n),$$ where $c_{1}.c_{2},\dots,c_{k}$ are real numbers , and

$$F(n) = (b_{t}n^{t} + b_{t-1}n^{t-1}) + \dots + b_{1}n + b_{0})s^{n},$$ where $b_{0},b_{1},\dots,b_{t}$ and $s$ are real numbers. When $s$ is is not a root of the characteristic equation of the associated linear homogeneous recurrence relation, there is a particular solution of the form $$(p_{t}n^{t} + p_{t-1}n^{t-1} + \dots + p_{1}n + p_{0})s^{n}.$$

When $s$ is a root of this characteristic equation and its multiplicity is $m,$ there is a particular solution of the form $$n^{m}(p_{t}n^{t} + p_{t-1}n^{t-1} + \dots + p_{1}n + p_{0})s^{n}.$$

Use question $48$ to solve the recurrence relation $(n + 1)a_{n} = (n + 3)a_{n-1} + n, \:\text{for}\: n \geq 1, \:\text{with}\: a_{0} = 1$
