Abstract
We study the global result, boundedness, and periodicity of solutions of the difference equation
x(n+1) = a + bx(n-l) + cx(n-k)/dx(n-l) + ex(n-k), n = 0,1, ...,
where the parameters a, b, c, d, and e are positive real numbers and the initial conditions x(-t), x(-t+1), ..., x(-1) and x(0) are positive real numbers where t = max{l, k}, l not equal k. (C) 2016 All rights reserved.
