The solution depends on the value of 
. To make things simple, assume 
. The homogeneous part of the equation is
and has characteristic equation
which admits the characteristic solution
.
For the solution to the nonhomogeneous equation, a reasonable guess for the particular solution might be
. Then
So you have
This means
and so the general solution would be
and has characteristic equation
which admits the characteristic solution
For the solution to the nonhomogeneous equation, a reasonable guess for the particular solution might be
So you have
This means
and so the general solution would be
let x represent the number of apples and y represent the number of oranges.
TOTAL: x + y = 112
y = 112 - x
PEELED:
3x = 4y
3x = 4(112 - x)
3x = 448 - 4x
7x = 448
x = 64
y = 112 - x
= 112 - 64
= 48
a) There are 64 apples and 48 oranges
Peeled apples: = 3(8) = 24
Unpeeled apples: 64 - 24 = 40
Unpeeled - Peeled: 40 - 24 - 16
b) there are 16 more unpeeled apples than peeled apples
