I'll assume the ODE is

y'' - 3y' + 2y = e^x + e^{2x} + e^{-x}

Solve the homogeneous ODE,

y'' - 3y' + 2y = 0

The characteristic equation

r^2 - 3r + 2 = (r - 1) (r - 2) = 0

has roots at r=1 and r=2. Then the characteristic solution is

y = C_1 e^x + C_2 e^{2x}

For nonhomogeneous ODE (1),

y'' - 3y' + 2y = e^x

consider the ansatz particular solution

y = axe^x \implies y' = a(x+1) e^x \implies y'' = a(x+2) e^x

Substituting this into (1) gives

a(x+2) e^x - 3 a (x+1) e^x + 2ax e^x = e^x \implies a = -1

For the nonhomogeneous ODE (2),

y'' - 3y' + 2y = e^{2x}

take the ansatz

y = bxe^{2x} \implies y' = b(2x+1) e^{2x} \implies y'' = b(4x+4) e^{2x}

Substitute (2) into the ODE to get

b(4x+4) e^{2x} - 3b(2x+1)e^{2x} + 2bxe^{2x} = e^{2x} \implies b=1

Lastly, for the nonhomogeneous ODE (3)

y'' - 3y' + 2y = e^{-x}

take the ansatz

y = ce^{-x} \implies y' = -ce^{-x} \implies y'' = ce^{-x}

and solve for c.

ce^{-x} + 3ce^{-x} + 2ce^{-x} = e^{-x} \implies c = \dfrac16

Then the general solution to the ODE is

\boxed{y = C_1 e^x + C_2 e^{2x} - xe^x + xe^{2x} + \dfrac16 e^{-x}}

Solve for f<br> -f +2 + 4f = 8 - 3f
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

f=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let start off with doing -f plus 4f which gives you 3f. The equation would now be 2+3f=8-3f. Add 3f so you can cancel out the -3f and add the 3f to the other 3f. Now your equation is 2+6f=8. Cancel out do by doing -2. (Don't forget to to it to the 8 also.) Now your equation is 6f=6. Divide 6 from both sides to get 1. (You divide because you want to get f alone.

0 = 4 + n/5 two step equations​
Serjik [45]

Answer: n= -20?

Step-by-step:

Simplify both sides of the equation

1/5n+4=0

Then subtract 4 from both sides

1/5n + 4 - 4 = 0 - 4

1/5n= -4

Then multiply both sides by 5

5*(1/5n)=5*(-4)
