Differential Equations - Reduction of order
iren [92.7K]
With reduction of order, we assume a solution of the form y_2=zy_1=ze^{2x}, with z=z(x). Then

{y_2}'=(z'+2z)e^{2x}
{y_2}''=(z''+4z'+4z)e^{2x}

and substituting into the ODE gives

x(z''+4z'+4z)e^{2x}-(2x+1)(z'+2z)e^{2x}+2ze^{2x}=0
x(z''+4z'+4z)-(2x+1)(z'+2z)+2z=0
xz''+(2x-1)z'=0

Let \xi(x)=z'(x), so that \xi'=z''. This gives the linear ODE

x\xi'+(2x-1)\xi=0

This equation is also separable, so you can write

\dfrac{\xi'}{\xi}=\dfrac{1-2x}x

Integrating both sides with respect to x gives

\ln|\xi|=-2x+\ln x+C_1
\xi=C_1xe^{-2x}

Next, solve z'=\xi for z by integrating both sides again with respect to x.

z'=\xi
\implies z=\displaystyle\int C_1xe^{-2x}\,\mathrm dx
\implies z=C_1e^{-2x}(2x+1)+C_2

And finally, solve for y_2.

y_2=zy_1=C_1(2x+1)+C_2e^{2x}

and note that y_1 is already taken into account as part of y_2, so this is the general solution to the ODE.

PLZ HELP ASAP! I WILL MARK BRAINIEST
zmey [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If we look, "y" can be factored out of the entire expression because it goes into them all. This gives y(2x^3 - 4x^2 + 8x - 16)

Since everything inside the brackets is a multiple of 2 we can factor it out.

2y (x^3 - 2x^2 + 8x - 16)

Here to factor (x^3 - 2x^2 + 8x - 16) we could either use a calculator, or notice that when we subsitute 2 into the equation, it equals 0. Therefore (x - 2) must be a factor. The other factor must be (x^2 + 8) because:

(x - 2) (      )

We need to have 1 x^3 so we know the first part of the factor must be x^2

The also need to have -16 when we multiply this out, -2 * something equals -16. Meaning we must have 8 inside of the brackets.

This gives :

(x - 2) (x^2 + 8).

When we expand this out we get (x^3 - 2x^2 + 8x - 16)

Therefore in total we have

2y (x - 2)(x^2 + 8)

There are other methods of factorising (x^3 - 2x^2 + 8x - 16), so use the method which you have been taught in class or the one I used.

First to answer gets brainliest
skad [1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Because you can't do -x+1 so it would be (1,0) and then you have x^2 +3x-4 which is (-5,6)
