Solve the following differential equation by undetermined coefficients. \[y''+4y=3\sin(2x)\] Characteristic polynomial: \[r^2+4=0, e=\pm2i\] \[y_c=c_1\cos(2x)+c_2\sin(2x)\] \[y_p=Ax\cos(2x)+Bx\sin(2x)\] \[y'_p=A\cos(2x)-2Ax\sin(2x)+B\sin(2x)+2Bx\cos(2x)\] \[y''_p=-2A\sin(2x)-2A\sin(2x)-4x\cos(2x)-2B\cos(2x)+2B\cos(2x)-\] \[4Bx\sin(2x)\] \[=-4A\sin(2x)-4x\cos(2x)-4B\sin(2x)=3x\sin\] \[A=0,B=-\frac{3}{4}, y=c_1\cos(2x)+c_2\sin(2x)-\frac{3}{4}x\sin(2x)\] Answer in the book is\(y=c_1\cos(2x)+c_2\sin(2x)-\frac{3}{4}x\cos(2x)\)
