First look for the fundamental solutions by solving the homogeneous version of the ODE:

The characteristic equation is

with roots
and
, giving the two solutions
and
.
For the non-homogeneous version, you can exploit the superposition principle and consider one term from the right side at a time.

Assume the ansatz solution,



(You could include a constant term <em>f</em> here, but it would get absorbed by the first solution
anyway.)
Substitute these into the ODE:




is already accounted for, so assume an ansatz of the form



Substitute into the ODE:





Assume an ansatz solution



Substitute into the ODE:



So, the general solution of the original ODE is

ANSWER

EXPLANATION
It was given that,a bottle of la belle bœuf contains 3/8 ounces of perfume.
We want to find how many ounces of perfume would 4 1/2 bottles contain.
If 1 bottle contains 3/8 ounces;
Then 4½ bottles should contain more ounces.
If more less divides.
4½ bottles contain


=1.6875 ounces.
Answer:
(8, 72)
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we have two separate equations for y: y = 9x and y = 2x + 56.
Equating these equations eliminates y temporarily; we get:
9x = 2x + 56, or 7x = 56. Dividing both sides by 7 results in x = 8.
Then, by the first equation, y = 9(8) = 72.
The solution is (8, 72).
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+8=6x-1
<u>-4x . =-4x .</u>
8 = 2x-1
<u>-1+8=2x-1+1 </u>
7=2x
7/2= 2x/2
3.5=x
