Let

. Then

and

are two fundamental, linearly independent solution that satisfy


Note that

, so that

. Adding

doesn't change this, since

.
So if we suppose

then substituting

would give

To make sure everything cancels out, multiply the second degree term by

, so that

Then if

, we get

as desired. So one possible ODE would be

(See "Euler-Cauchy equation" for more info)
3
the area is 41.6cm which is 1foot 4 3/8 inches.
So 6in + 6in + 6in = 1ft 6in, which will be enough to cover the floor.
Hey there!
The answer is 
We will start by forming an equation to solve this.
So we are starting with a number,
, then doubling it and adding
, which gives us 25.
So:

Now we solve this equation:



Have a super awesome day!
The answer or number that you are looking for is -6.4. You can get this by dividing 3 by 5 which is equal to 0.6. Next you would subtract 7 to reverse the act of having added it. This will give you -6.4 which is what you are looking for.
