Take the homogeneous part and find the roots to the characteristic equation:

y''+4y=0\implies r^2+4=0\implies r=\pm2i

This means the characteristic solution is y_c=C_1\cos2x+C_2\sin2x.

Since the characteristic solution already contains both functions on the RHS of the ODE, you could try finding a solution via the method of undetermined coefficients of the form y_p=ax\cos2x+bx\sin2x. Finding the second derivative involves quite a few applications of the product rule, so I'll resort to a different method via variation of parameters.

With y_1=\cos2x and y_2=\sin2x, you're looking for a particular solution of the form y_p=u_1y_1+u_2y_2. The functions u_i satisfy

u_1=\displaystyle-\int\frac{y_2(\cos2x+\sin2x)}{W(y_1,y_2)}\,\mathrm dx
u_2=\displaystyle\int\frac{y_1(\cos2x+\sin2x)}{W(y_1,y_2)}\,\mathrm dx

where W(y_1,y_2) is the Wronskian determinant of the two characteristic solutions.

W(\cos2x,\sin2x)=\begin{bmatrix}\cos2x&\sin2x\\-2\cos2x&2\sin2x\end{vmatrix}=2

So you have

u_1=\displaystyle-\frac12\int(\sin2x(\cos2x+\sin2x))\,\mathrm dx
u_1=-\dfrac x4+\dfrac18\cos^22x+\dfrac1{16}\sin4x

u_2=\displaystyle\frac12\int(\cos2x(\cos2x+\sin2x))\,\mathrm dx
u_2=\dfrac x4-\dfrac18\cos^22x+\dfrac1{16}\sin4x

So you end up with a solution

u_1y_1+u_2y_2=\dfrac18\cos2x-\dfrac14x\cos2x+\dfrac14x\sin2x

but since \cos2x is already accounted for in the characteristic solution, the particular solution is then

y_p=-\dfrac14x\cos2x+\dfrac14x\sin2x

so that the general solution is

y=C_1\cos2x+C_2\sin2x-\dfrac14x\cos2x+\dfrac14x\sin2x

For the following telescoping series, find a formula for the nth term of the sequence of partial sums
gtnhenbr [62]

I'm guessing the sum is supposed to be

\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac{10}{(5k-1)(5k+4)}

Split the summand into partial fractions:

\dfrac1{(5k-1)(5k+4)}=\dfrac a{5k-1}+\dfrac b{5k+4}

1=a(5k+4)+b(5k-1)

If k=-\frac45, then

1=b(-4-1)\implies b=-\frac15

If k=\frac15, then

1=a(1+4)\implies a=\frac15

This means

\dfrac{10}{(5k-1)(5k+4)}=\dfrac2{5k-1}-\dfrac2{5k+4}

Consider the nth partial sum of the series:

S_n=2\left(\dfrac14-\dfrac19\right)+2\left(\dfrac19-\dfrac1{14}\right)+2\left(\dfrac1{14}-\dfrac1{19}\right)+\cdots+2\left(\dfrac1{5n-1}-\dfrac1{5n+4}\right)

The sum telescopes so that

S_n=\dfrac2{14}-\dfrac2{5n+4}

and as n\to\infty, the second term vanishes and leaves us with

\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac{10}{(5k-1)(5k+4)}=\lim_{n\to\infty}S_n=\frac17
