Exercise 24.1
Eigenvalues:
Eigenvectors:
Geneal Solution to Homogeneous Problem:
Undetermined Coefficients
Guess for particular solution:
Note: If the first term would have been , we would have to multiply it by and add a corrective term since is already a solution
Derivation and Solution:
Coefficient of :
Coefficient of :
Variation of Parameters
Recall
Plugging in our values gives:
Take the antiderivatives of each function to get the final constants.
Laplace Transform
Let the initial condition (we can pick whatever we want)
Finally we get
Exercise 20.3
Eigenvalues:
…
Exercise 11
Use method of variation of parameters to find a particular solution of
Solution to Homogeneous equation:
Notice that now we know matrices:
