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

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

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

Trina has 72 collector’s stamps. She puts 43 of the stamps into a stamp book. How many stamps are left?

sattari [20]

Hi! For this question all you have to do is subtract 43 from 72.

72 - 43 = 29

Trina had 29 stamps left.

Hope this helps! Happy Thanksgiving!
