Math Problem Statement
Discovering Lucas relationships. By experimenting with numerous examples in search of a pattern, determine a formula for L n
1 + L n + 1 ; that is , a formula for the sum of a Lucas number and the Lucas number that comes after the next one. ( Hint: The answer will not be a Lucas number. See Mindscape 1 0 . )
