= 1 1 + 2 2
General Steps
Step 1. Determine the characteristic equation or the auxiliary equation. Do
this by replacing the derivatives with another symbol (r, m or ).
Step 2. Use algebraic techniques to determine the value of (r, m or ). Then
substitute into the general solution.
Step 3. If it is an IVP problem, apply the initial conditions to get the
particular solution.
