Proof of a formula for generalized Fibonacci numbers

100 Views Asked by At

I have done the verification for
$$U_rU_{n−1} − U_{r−1}U_n = (−1)^{r−1}U_{n−r}$$ I realized when I was doing for $n=k+1$, the expression $U_rU_k − U_{r−1}U_{k+1}$ would not equate to $(−1)^{r−1}U_{n−r}$. Can someone help me with this?
