Two second order De problem due tomorrow, Help me now!

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

\[3y \prime \prime + 2y \prime - y =4\sin 5x\]

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

\[x \prime \prime + 16x =3\cos t\]

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

I cannot find the PI for these two equations

OpenStudy (loser66):

what does PI mean?

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

Oh no! It should be 3 cos 4t in the second problem

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

PI stands for "particular integral"

OpenStudy (loser66):

the first one first, what is your characteristic equation for homogenous part? don't forget it's second ODE, not first ODE, no need to find PI

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

my AQE is \[3u ^{2}+2^{u}-1=0\]

OpenStudy (loser66):

why 2^u ? but 2u?

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

so CF should be \[y=Ae ^{\frac{ x }{ 3 }}+Be ^{-x}\]

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

yes, my typo. Obviously it's 2u

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

but the general solution is supposed to be CF + PI right?

OpenStudy (loser66):

oh, I got you , PI is partial solution, comes from nonhomogeneous part.

OpenStudy (loser66):

yes, it has formula to get,

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

right, my CF is correct , but I can't solve for PI

OpenStudy (loser66):

want to take my note and find out by yourself?

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

I let my PI to be\[y=\lambda \sin 5x + \mu \cos 5x\]

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

this lead to the equations\[-76\lambda-10\mu=4\] and\[-76\mu-10\lambda=0\]

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

The solution is weird, so maybe there is something wrong

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

Is my equation correct?

OpenStudy (loser66):

the whole solution is add them together, I mean homo and nonhomo solution parts hey, your prof didn't teach you that way??

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

my answers are : \[\lambda=-\frac{ 76 }{ 1469 }\] \[\mu=-\frac{ 10 }{ 1469 }\]

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

I mean my solution is weird, look at the numbers above, they are so strange!

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

No I am going to solve the constant in the PI, not in the CF

OpenStudy (loser66):

so, I am useless for you. Sorry , I waste your time. Do you want me clear up or just close this post and open a new one to get other's help?

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

You are helpful if you can just check my answer is correct or not. Here is my final solution: \[y=Ae ^{\frac{ 3 }{ x }}+Be ^{-x}-\frac{ 76 }{ 1469 }\sin 5x -\frac{ 10 }{ 1469 }\cos 5x\]

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

but how ?! what's wrong with my equation?

OpenStudy (loser66):

ok, show me your work from \(y=\lambda \sin 5x + \mu \cos 5x\) step by step, don't say "which leads to...."

OpenStudy (loser66):

how do you get the next equation for \(\lambda ~~and~~\mu\)

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

\[y=\lambda \sin 5x +\mu \cos 5x\]\[y \prime=5\lambda \cos 5x -5\mu sin 5x\]

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

\[y \prime \prime = -25\lambda \sin 5x - 25 \]

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

Am I right up until now?

OpenStudy (loser66):

y" is weird

OpenStudy (loser66):

the last term, where are your \(\mu\) and sin 5x from y'?

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

If you substitute all of them to the original equation. \[-75\lambda \sin 5x -75mucos5x + 10 \lambda \cos5x -10 \mu \sin 5x - \lambda \sin 5x - \mu \cos 5x =4 \sin 5x\]

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

OMG typo again!

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

the above equation should have " sin 5x " at the end, but they disappeared.

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

then you compare coefficients and you should arrive at my equations for mu and lambda

OpenStudy (loser66):

ok, combine the like term first, respect to cos and sin

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

it should be \[(-76 \lambda -10\mu) \sin 5x + ( -76\mu + 10 \lambda) \cos 5x = 4 \sin 5x \]

OpenStudy (loser66):

yup

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

thats why -76 l -10 m =4 and -76 m + 10 l =0 l is lambda and m is mu

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

so how do you get your answer?

OpenStudy (loser66):

My Ti 83 said that \(\lambda = -\dfrac{76}{1469}\) and \(\mu=-\dfrac{10}{1469}\)

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

yes, that's my answer

OpenStudy (loser66):

ok, we did all our best, if it's not correct, no regret

OpenStudy (caozeyuan):

aha! wolfram alpha says my answer is correct!

OpenStudy (loser66):

hehehe unfortunately we are not allowed to use that tool on teeeeeests

OpenStudy (loser66):

the second equation you solve by yourself, I don't have time to play with you anymore. good luck
