Dont know where I went wrong Find the solution to the bounda

Don\'t know where I went wrong

Find the solution to the boundary value problem: d^2y/dt^2 - 5dy/dt + 6y = 0, y(0) = 9, y(1) = 4 The solution is y =

Solution

The auxiliary equation is m2-5m+6=0

Roots are 2&3

Hence general solution is y(t) = c1e2t+c2e3t

The boundary conditions imply

c1+c2=9  

c1e2+c2e3=4    ................> c2= (4-c1e2)/ e3

solving thus   

c1+ (4-c1e2)/ e3 = 9  

implies c1= (9 e3 -4) / (e3 -e2) =13.922

c2= -4.922

thus solution is y(t) = 13.922 e2t - 4.922e3t
