Chapter 6: Q23E (page 337)

use the annihilator method to determinethe form of a particular solution for the given equation $y'' - 5 y' + 6 y = e^{3 x} - x^{2}$

Short Answer

Expert verified

$y'' - 5 y' + 6 y = e^{3 x} - x^{2}$

Step by step solution

Solve the homogeneous of the given equation

The homogeneous of the given equation is

$(D^{2} - 5 D + 6) [y] = (D - 2) (D - 3) [y] = 0$

The solution of the homogeneous is

$y_{h} (x) = c_{1} e^{2 x} + c_{2} e^{3 x}$ (1)

Let $g (x) = e^{3 x}$

Then

$(D - 3) [g] = 0$

Let $h (x) = x^{2}$

Then

$D^{3} [h] = 0$

Hence

$D^{3} (D - 3) [g - h] = 0$

Then, every solution to the given nonhomogeneous equation also satisfies

. $D^{3} (D - 3) (D - 2) (D - 3) [y] = D^{3} (D - 2) (D - 3)^{2} [y] = 0$

Then

$y (x) = c_{1} e^{2 x} + c_{2} e^{3 x} + c_{3} x e^{3 x} + c_{4} + c_{5} x + c_{6} x^{2}$ (2)

is the general solution to this homogeneous equation

We know $u (x) = u_{h} + u_{p}$

Comparing (1) & (2)

$y_{p} (x) = c_{3} x e^{3 x} + c_{4} + c_{5} x + c_{6} x^{2}$
