Please help me solve this step-by-step. THANKS! (D^2-16I)y=9.6e^4x + 30e^x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

find y. thx~

OpenStudy (anonymous):

By the way, it is nonhomogeneous ODE...

OpenStudy (valpey):

Are you trying to write: \[(D^{2}-16l)y = 9.6e^{4x} + 30e^{x}\] ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes.

OpenStudy (valpey):

Is D^2-16l a constant?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the question didn't mention that...it only says that to find a (real) general solution...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I only know D is d/dx (operator)

OpenStudy (valpey):

What does the el represent then?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's a open interval...

OpenStudy (valpey):

Oh, that is a capital i.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, sorry I didn't type clearly^^

OpenStudy (valpey):

So you have: \[\frac{d^2y}{(dx)^2} - 16Iy = 9.6e^{4x} +30e^x\] http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=d%5E2%28y%29%2F%28dx%5E2%29-16*k*y%3D9.6e%5E%284x%29+%2B+30e%5Ex
