Ordinary Differential Equation problem Consider the ODESolut
(Ordinary Differential Equation problem)
Consider the ODE
Solution
i)
This is a linear homogeneous equation with constant coefficients so solution is of the form
y=exp(kx)
Substituting gives
k^2-2k+1=0
k^2-2k+1=0
k=1
So,
y1=e^{t},y2=te^{t}
ii)
y1(0)y1, y2(0)y2
iii)
General solution is
y=Ay1+By2=Ae^{t}+Bte^{t}
y(0)=A=1
y\'(t)=e^t+Be^t+Bte^t
y\'(0)=1+B=1
B=0
y= e^{t}
