Answer:  The required solution is

y(t)=-\dfrac{7}{3}e^{-t}+\dfrac{7}{3}e^{\frac{1}{5}t}.

Step-by-step explanation:   We are given to solve the following differential equation :

5y^{\prime\prime}+3y^\prime-2y=0,~~~~~~~y(0)=0,~~y^\prime(0)=2.8~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

Let us consider that

y=e^{mt} be an auxiliary solution of equation (i).

Then, we have

y^prime=me^{mt},~~~~~y^{\prime\prime}=m^2e^{mt}.

Substituting these values in equation (i), we get

5m^2e^{mt}+3me^{mt}-2e^{mt}=0\\\\\Rightarrow (5m^2+3y-2)e^{mt}=0\\\\\Rightarrow 5m^2+3m-2=0~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{since }e^{mt}\neq0]\\\\\Rightarrow 5m^2+5m-2m-2=0\\\\\Rightarrow 5m(m+1)-2(m+1)=0\\\\\Rightarrow (m+1)(5m-1)=0\\\\\Rightarrow m+1=0,~~~~~5m-1=0\\\\\Rightarrow m=-1,~\dfrac{1}{5}.

So, the general solution of the given equation is

y(t)=Ae^{-t}+Be^{\frac{1}{5}t}.

Differentiating with respect to t, we get

y^\prime(t)=-Ae^{-t}+\dfrac{B}{5}e^{\frac{1}{5}t}.

According to the given conditions, we have

y(0)=0\\\\\Rightarrow A+B=0\\\\\Rightarrow B=-A~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)

and

y^\prime(0)=2.8\\\\\Rightarrow -A+\dfrac{B}{5}=2.8\\\\\Rightarrow -5A+B=14\\\\\Rightarrow -5A-A=14~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{Uisng equation (ii)}]\\\\\Rightarrow -6A=14\\\\\Rightarrow A=-\dfrac{14}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow A=-\dfrac{7}{3}.

From equation (ii), we get

B=\dfrac{7}{3}.

Thus, the required solution is

y(t)=-\dfrac{7}{3}e^{-t}+\dfrac{7}{3}e^{\frac{1}{5}t}.

What would 5.36 be in a fraction<br> Please explain how you got the answer too.
garri49 [273]
So you have 5.36
that is 5 wholes and 0.36
0.36 can be written on a fraction of 36/100
simplify it to 9/25
Now you have the mixed number
5  9/25 or to write it into an improper fraction... multiply 25 * 5 then add 9, that is 134/25.

Hope this helps
