Undetermined coefficients (3.5) Use the undetermined coefficients to find the general solution of y + y = 3 sin(2x) + e 3x Solution: Find the solutions of the homogeneous problem, r 2 + = 0 r ± = ±2i. y 1 = cos(2x), y 2 = sin(2x). Start with the first source, f 1 (x) = 3 sin(2x). The function ỹ p1 = k 1 sin(2x) + k 2 cos(2x) is the wrong guess, since it is solution of the homogeneous equation. We guess: y p = x k 1 sin(2x) + k 2 cos(2x) ]. y p = k 1 sin(2x) + k 2 cos(2x) ] + 2x k 1 cos(2x) k 2 sin(2x) ]. y p = k 1 cos(2x) k 2 sin(2x) ] + x k 1 sin(2x) k 2 cos(2x) ]. Undetermined coefficients (3.5) Use the undetermined coefficients to find the general solution of y + y = 3 sin(2x) + e 3x. Solution: Recall: y 1 = sin(2x), and y 2 = cos(2x). k 1 cos(2x) k 2 sin(2x) ] + x k 1 sin(2x) k 2 cos(2x) ] + x k 1 sin(2x) + k 2 cos(2x) ] = 3 sin(2x), Therefore, k 1 cos(2x) k 2 sin(2x) ] = 3 sin(2x). Evaluating at x = 0 and x = π/ we get k 1 = 0, k 2 = 3 k 1 = 0, k 2 = 3. Therefore, y p1 = 3 x cos(2x).
