Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

12−5+6=0

using the Quadratic Formula where

a = 1, b = -5, and c = 6

=−±2−4‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾√2

=−(−5)±(−5)2−4(1)(6)‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾√2(1)

=5±25−24‾‾‾‾‾‾‾√2

=5±1‾√2

The discriminant 2−4>0

so, there are two real roots.

Simplify the Radical:

=5±12

=62=42

which becomes

hope this helps :)

Determine if the two triangles are congruent and write the conjecture.<br> pls help

viva [34]

Answer:

(see below)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to make it easier for yourself, "flip" the triangles so that they "match." To see what I'm talking about, refer to IMAGE.A.

Now that you can tell that the congruent side and angles are corresponding, you have to prove them congruent.

There is one side and two angles, so it's AAS or SAA.

Use the method of undetermined coefficients to find the general solution to the de y′′−3y′ 2y=ex e2x e−x

djverab [1.8K]

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

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