If you triple 4 and subtract 2 each day, how many days until you have zero?

DAY 1
You start with 4
You triple it to get 12
You subtract 2 to get 10
DAY 2
You start with 10
You triple it to get 20
You subtract 2 to get 18
DAY 3
You start with 18
You triple it to get 54
You subtract 2 to get 52...
This isn't going anywhere, now is it? You're never going to reach zero, it must be a trick question.

Determine the singular points of the given differential equation. Classify each singular point as regular or irregular. (Enter y

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The differential equation; $(x^2-4)^2y'' + (x + 2)y' + 7y = 0$

The above equation can be better expressed as:

$y'' + \dfrac{(x+2)}{(x^2-4)^2} \ y'+ \dfrac{7}{(x^2- 4)^2} \ y=0$

The pattern of the normalized differential equation can be represented as:

y'' + p(x)y' + q(x) y = 0

This implies that:

$p(x) = \dfrac{(x+2)}{(x^2-4)^2} \$

$p(x) = \dfrac{(x+2)}{(x+2)^2 (x-2)^2} \$

$p(x) = \dfrac{1}{(x+2)(x-2)^2}$

Also;

$q(x) = \dfrac{7}{(x^2-4)^2}$

$q(x) = \dfrac{7}{(x+2)^2(x-2)^2}$

From p(x) and q(x); we will realize that the zeroes of (x+2)(x-2)² = ±2

When x = - 2

$\lim \limits_{x \to-2} (x+ 2) p(x) = \lim \limits_{x \to2} (x+ 2) \dfrac{1}{(x+2)(x-2)^2}$

$\implies \lim \limits_{x \to2} \dfrac{1}{(x-2)^2}$

$\implies \dfrac{1}{16}$

$\lim \limits_{x \to-2} (x+ 2)^2 q(x) = \lim \limits_{x \to2} (x+ 2)^2 \dfrac{7}{(x+2)^2(x-2)^2}$

$\implies \lim \limits_{x \to2} \dfrac{7}{(x-2)^2}$

$\implies \dfrac{7}{16}$

Hence, one (1) of them is non-analytical at x = 2.

Thus, x = 2 is an irregular singular point.
