    The solutions of the difference equation in the title with nonnegative coefficients and real initial values are studied with respect to boundedness resp. 2-periodicity. Moreover, the positive equilibrium of it is studied in cases, where it is unstable resp. locally or globally asymptotically stable. If it is a global attractor, then the corresponding basin is determined. The results are illustrated by 6 figures.
