It will generlly converge for ll x in some intervl centered t, which my or my not include the endpoints. The rtio nd root tests re good for finding the intervl, then use other tests for the endpoints. 5.2 Tylor Series The Tylor series of f(x) round x = is the power series f (k) () k!

The order of differentil eqution is the highest derivtive tht ppers. A function y = f(x) is solution to differentil eqution if substituting y = f(x) mkes the eqution true. 6.1 Slope Fields A differentil eqution of the form dy dx = f(x, y) cn be studied by drwing the slope field, which mens t ech point (x 0, y 0 ), drwing smll line segment through the point hving slope f(x 0, y 0 ). 6.2 First Order Liner Differentil Equtions A first order liner differentil eqution hs the form dy + P (x)y = Q(x). dx To solve, compute the integrting fctor v(x) = e P (x) dx. Then multiplying by v(x) mkes the left-hnd side of the eqution equl to d ( ) v(x)y, so the solution is dx y = 1 v(x)q(x) dx. v(x) 8
6.3 Applictions of First Order Liner Differentil Equtions Popultion growth nd rdioctive decy problems led to seprble differentil equtions of the form dy dx = ky with solution y = Cekx. Mixing problems in which liquid contining chemicl is pouring into nd drined out of continer often led to generl first order liner differentil equtions. 6.4 Euler s Method To pproximtely solve dy = f(x, y), dx strt t point (x 0, y 0 ), choose (smll) increment vlue, nd then for n = 1, 2, 3,... let x n = x n 1 + dx nd y n = y n 1 + f(x n 1, y n 1 ) dx. An improved method is to let x n = x n 1 + dx, z n = y n 1 + f(x n 1, y n 1 ) dx, ( ) f(xn 1, y n 1 ) + f(x n, z n ) y n = y n 1 + dx. 2 6.5 Second Order Liner Differentil Equtions A second order liner differentil eqution hs the form P (x) d2 y dx + Q(x)dy + R(x)y = G(x). 2 dx If G(x) = 0, the eqution is homogeneous. 9
6.6 Homogeneous Second Order Liner Differentil Equtions with Constnt Coefficients To solve y + by + cy = 0 when nd b re constnts, first find the roots of r 2 + br + c = 0. The roots re r 1, r 2 = b ± b 2 4c. 2 There re three cses. Cse I: b 2 4c > 0: Then r 1 nd r 2 re rel, nd the generl solution is y = c 1 e r 1x + c 2 e r 2x. Cse II: b 2 4c < 0: Then r 1 nd r 2 re complex numbers, so we cn write them s r 1 = α + βi nd r 2 = α βi. Then the generl solution is y = e αx( c 1 cos(βx) + c 2 sin(βx) ). Cse III: b 2 4c = 0: Then r 1 = r 2 = b, nd the generl solution is 2 y = c 1 e r 1x + c 2 xe r 1x = (c 1 + c 2 x)e r 1x. 6.7 Non-Homogeneous Second Order Liner Differentil Equtions with Constnt Coefficients To find the generl solution to y + by + cy = G(x), first find the solution y c (x) to the complementry homogeneous eqution y + by + cy = 0. Next find prticulr solution y p (x) to the non-homogeneous eqution. Then the generl solution to the non-homogeneous eqution is y(x) = y c (x)+y p (x). 10
6.8 Method of Undetermined Coefficients If G(x) is polynomil, or e rx or trig function multiplied by polynomil, one cn guess the form of the solution, leving the coefficients s unknowns, substitute into the differentil eqution, nd solve for the coefficients. 6.9 Method of Vrition of Prmeters Let y c (x) = c 1 y 1 (x) + c 2 y 2 (x) be the solution to the complementry homogeneous eqution. Solve the equtions v 1(x)y 1 (x) + v 2(x)y 2 (x) = 0 nd v 1(x)y 1(x) + v 2(x)y 2(x) = G(x)/ for v 1(x) nd v 2(x). Integrte to find v 1 (x) nd v 2 (x). Then y p (x) = v 1 (x)y 1 (x) + v 2 (x)y 2 (x). 6.10 Hrmonic Motion If weight of mss m is ttched to spring hving spring constnt k, nd if it moves through medium with friction equl to δ times its instntneous velocity, then the eqution of motion is my + δy + ky = 0. Depending on the vlues of m, δ, nd k, the solution will involve exponentils nd/or trig functions. 6.11 Series Solutions to Differentil Equtions To find series solution to substitute P (x)y + Q(x)y + R(x)y = 0, y(x) = c n x n n=0 into the eqution, set ll power of x equl to zero, nd find reltions on c 0, c 1, c 2,.... In generl, there should be two coefficients of y(x) tht cn be chosen rbitrrily, nd then ll of the other coefficients cn be expressed in terms of those two. 11
