All linear recurrences will have rational generating functions (i.e. the \( f(x) \) in my earlier post will always be of the form \( \frac{p(x)}{q(x)} \) for polynomials \( p(x) \) and \( q(x) \)). In the case of lower order recurrences, one can often obtain a partial fraction decomposition of the rational function which then leads to solutions of the aforementioned forms.
