A simple particular integral is up (x, y) = 3y. Thus, the general solution to the
inhomogeneous equation is
u(x, y) = f (x2 + y 2 ) 3y
Using the boundary condition, we have
u(x, 0) = x2 = p f (p) = p u(x, y) = x2 + y 2 3y

We look for solutions of the form u(x, y) = f (x + y) where satisfies

Thus,

u(x, y) = f (x + y) + g(x + y) = f (p1 ) + g(p2 )

Using the first boundary condition, we have
x2 = u(x, 0) = f (x) + g(x)
