Computing the solution of a recurrence relation

Let $y_k=dfrac{16}{3}y_{k-1}-dfrac{5}{3}y_{k-2}$



with $y_0=1$ and $y_1=dfrac{1}{2}$ for $k geq 2, k in mathbb{N}$.



To find the solution $lbrace y_k rbrace_{k in mathbb{N_0}}$ I used:



Firstly, I computed it for $k=2$:



$y_2=dfrac{16}{3}dfrac{1}{2}-dfrac{5}{3}1=1$



What has to be done next? Induction isn't helpful here.



I don't see how can it be found for $lbrace y_k rbrace_{k in mathbb{N_0}}$.

$$y_k=frac{{{5}^{k}}}{28}+frac{{{3}^{3-k}}}{28}$$



$$[1,1/2,1,9/2,67/3,2009/18,15067/27,452009/162,3390067/243,101702009/1458,762765067/2187]$$



Solution details:



Char. equation is
$${{t}^{2}}-frac{16 t}{3}+frac{5}{3}=0$$
$$t_1=5,quad t_2=frac13$$
Then solution is
$$y_k=A,5^k+B,left(frac13right)^k$$
From initial conditions
$$A,5^0+B,left(frac13right)^0=1,\
A,5^1+B,left(frac13right)^1=frac12$$

$Rightarrow$
$$A=frac{1}{28},quad B=frac{27}{28}$$
$Rightarrow$
$$y_k=frac{{{5}^{k}}}{28}+frac{{{3}^{3-k}}}{28}$$
