The functions an(1)=3na_n^{(1)} = 3^nan(1)​=3n and an(2)=n⋅3na_n^{(2)} = n \cdot 3^nan(2)​=n⋅3n are solutions to a second-order homogeneous linear recurrence. Compute their Casoratian (discrete Wronskian):

Wn=an(1)an+1(2)−an(2)an+1(1)W_n = a_n^{(1)} a_{n+1}^{(2)} - a_n^{(2)} a_{n+1}^{(1)}Wn​=an(1)​an+1(2)​−an(2)​an+1(1)​

Which statement is true?
