Please show work out for number 4 i couldnt solve it.
Explanation / Answer
Let e^(kt) be a solution for the given differential equation.
Substitute this in the equation. We get,
k^3 + 5k^2 + 5K - 11 = 0
Also given that e^t is a solution. So, k = 1 is a solution to the above equation.
To find other solutions, divide the expression ( k^3 + 5k^2 + 5K - 11 ) with (k-1).We get,
(k^2 + 6k + 11). So the other 2 roots are (-3 + i*sqrt(2)) and (-3 - i*sqrt(2)).
We know that e^(ix) = cos(x) + i*sin(x).
Similarly e^((-3 + i*sqrt(2))*i)t = e^(-3t) *(cos sqrt(2)t) + i*e^(-3t) *(sin sqrt(2)t)
e^((-3 - i*sqrt(2))*i)t = e^(-3t) *(cos sqrt(2)t) - i*e^(-3t) *(sin sqrt(2)t)
Therefore the other 2 solutions of given diff. equation are
e^(-3t) *(cos sqrt(2)t) and e^(-3t) *(sin sqrt(2)t)
Finally the general solution will be
a*e^t + b*e^(-3t)*(cos sqrt(2)t) + c*e^(-3t)*(sin sqrt(2)t) , a,b,c are parameters.
