Hi, I'm trying to use rsolve to solve the difference equaiton: y(n)-3*y(n-1)-4*y(n-2)=delta(n)+2*delta(n-1)  where deta(n) is the discrete delta function represented by charfcn[0](n).  The answer should be y(n)=(-1/5)*(-1)^n+(6/5)*4^n.  I'm getting the answer in terms of y(0) and y(1) and extra terms.  Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks for your help
