Determine linear, exponential, or neither

In any data set, we find that the range is the difference between maximum and minimum. The range cannot give full information about the variability of the data set.

Outliers are the ones which are either below Q1-1.5IQR or Q3+1.5IQR

Thus Inter quartile range, the difference between I quartile and III quartile gives a better idea about variability and also outlier.

Hence out of the four options given, we find that option B is the right one.

Option

A. The IQR is the best measure of variability because the distribution has an outlier.

Find a particular solution to <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20x%5E%7B2%7D%20%20%5Cfrac%7B%20d%5E%7B2%7Dy%20%7D%7Bd%20x%5E%7

Digiron [165]

$y=x^r$
$\implies r(r-1)x^r+6rx^r+4x^r=0$
$\implies r^2+5r+4=(r+1)(r+4)=0$
$\implies r=-1,r=-4$

so the characteristic solution is

$y_c=\dfrac{C_1}x+\dfrac{C_2}{x^4}$

As a guess for the particular solution, let's back up a bit. The reason the choice of $y=x^r$ works for the characteristic solution is that, in the background, we're employing the substitution $t=\ln x$ , so that $y(x)$ is getting replaced with a new function $z(t)$ . Differentiating yields

$\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac1x\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}$
$\dfrac{\mathrm d^2y}{\mathrm dx^2}=\dfrac1{x^2}\left(\dfrac{\mathrm d^2z}{\mathrm dt^2}-\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}\right)$

Now the ODE in terms of $t$ is linear with constant coefficients, since the coefficients $x^2$ and $x$ will cancel, resulting in the ODE

$\dfrac{\mathrm d^2z}{\mathrm dt^2}+5\dfrac{\mathrm dz}{\mathrm dt}+4z=e^{2t}\sin e^t$

Of coursesin, the characteristic equation will be $r^2+6r+4=0$ , which leads to solutions $C_1e^{-t}+C_2e^{-4t}=C_1x^{-1}+C_2x^{-4}$ , as before.

Now that we have two linearly independent solutions, we can easily find more via variation of parameters. If $z_1,z_2$ are the solutions to the characteristic equation of the ODE in terms of $z$ , then we can find another of the form $z_p=u_1z_1+u_2z_2$ where

$u_1=-\displaystyle\int\frac{z_2e^{2t}\sin e^t}{W(z_1,z_2)}\,\mathrm dt$
$u_2=\displaystyle\int\frac{z_1e^{2t}\sin e^t}{W(z_1,z_2)}\,\mathrm dt$

where $W(z_1,z_2)$ is the Wronskian of the two characteristic solutions. We have

$u_1=-\displaystyle\int\frac{e^{-2t}\sin e^t}{-3e^{-5t}}\,\mathrm dt$
$u_1=\dfrac23(1-2e^{2t})\cos e^t+\dfrac23e^t\sin e^t$

$u_2=\displaystyle\int\frac{e^t\sin e^t}{-3e^{-5t}}\,\mathrm dt$
$u_2=\dfrac13(120-20e^{2t}+e^{4t})e^t\cos e^t-\dfrac13(120-60e^{2t}+5e^{4t})\sin e^t$

$\implies z_p=u_1z_1+u_2z_2$
$\implies z_p=(40e^{-4t}-6)e^{-t}\cos e^t-(1-20e^{-2t}+40e^{-4t})\sin e^t$

and recalling that $t=\ln x\iff e^t=x$ , we have

$\implies y_p=\left(\dfrac{40}{x^3}-\dfrac6x\right)\cos x-\left(1-\dfrac{20}{x^2}+\dfrac{40}{x^4}\right)\sin x$
