Can ou tink of anoter wa to reac tis conclusion b consiering limits as? Let p be a nonzero polnomial of egree n an assume tat p satisfies te ifferential equation + 0. Ten p + p 0 for all. Tere are eactl tree cases. a If n 0, ten p is a constant polnomial an tus p 0. Hence 0 p + p p or p 0 i.e., p is equal to 0 for all or p is ienticall 0. Tis is a contraiction, since p is a nonzero polnomial. b If n, ten p is a linear polnomial an tus p 0. Once again, we ave 0 p + p p or p 0, a contraiction since p is a nonzero polnomial. c If n, ten p is at least a quaratic polnomial an tus p is a polnomial of egree n 0. Tus q p + p is a polnomial of egree n. B assumption, owever, p + p 0. Tus q 0, a polnomial of egree 0. Tis is a contraiction, since te egree of q is n. CONCLUSION: In all cases, we ave reace a contraiction. Terefore te assumption tat p satisfies te ifferential equation + 0isfalse. Accoringl, a nonzero polnomial cannot satisf te state ifferential equation. Let sin. Ten cos an sin. Terefore,. Now, let cos. Ten sin an cos. Terefore,.
