Non-Homogeneous equation,i needed help figuring the particular solution to a problem or how to make the guess for it
y′′ − 3y′ + 2y = 4x + e^(2x)
i figured out the complimentary part just need help with particular solution because im coming up empty handed
in case you are wonderin i made the guess Ax+B+C*e^(2x) also hi Zarkon =)
what is the solution to \[x^2-3x+2=0\]
(x-2)(x-1)=0 x=2 x=1 y=c1*e^(2x)+c2*e^(x)
so x=2 is a solution...that should help you with you guess
for particular solution? sorry im just learning this but i dont see how
yes
can you explain how i should use my complimenary solution root to guess particular solution
since it is this form 4x + e^(2x) i thought the guess should be in the form Ax+B+C*e^(2x)
Ax+B+C*x*e^(2x)
what prompted u to guess the extra x?
you multiply by x since 2 is a solution to the auxiliary equation
so if there is more than one root to the auxilary equation? or just 2 in particular
the 2 since on the RHS of the eaution we have \(e^{2x}\) ... a 2 in the exponent
equation
OH My god thankyou thats actually something never explained
so if your root exists in the exponential equation you should multiply by x to make it equivalent
if the 2 had been a repeated root then you would have multiplied bt \(x^2\) and not just \(x\)
yes that makes so much more sense also one last question if there was (x-2)(x-3) but the exponent to was to the power e^(4x) we wouldnt multiply by x right?
what book do you use
correct
for engineers book one sec lemme google it
http://www.amazon.ca/Calculus-Scientists-Engineers-Early-Transcendentals/dp/0321785371
but i think a newer version but i cant find it lol

may your drule empire be everlasting king zarkon
look at the book page 186
its loading..............
ah
should i post another question in another place or is it ok if i post here
its a different approach to the standard homogeneous equations so it kinda threw me off
I have to go away...so make a new post
KK THANKS AGAIN LORD ZARKON
