Let denote the number of ways of tossing a coin n times such that successive heads never appear. Argue that, where.
Hint: How many outcomes are there that start with ahead, and how many start with a tail? If denotes the probability that successive heads never appear when a coin is tossed n times, find (in terms of ) when all possible outcomes of the tosses are assumed equally likely. Compute
