Given differential equation is y′′−2y′+y=4x2−1+xex
Auxiliary equation is m2−2m+1=0⟹m=1,1
so y=C1ex+C2xex
Let us solve for (4x2−1) by undetermined coefficients and for xex by variation of parameters
(a) undetermined coefficients:
let y=Ax2+Bx+C be solution of the equation y′′−2y′+y=4x2−1
then differentiating y first and second time with respect to x, and putting in differential equation, then equation will be ,
