auxillary equation m2 + 3m + 2 = 0
= m = 3,m = 1

the equation has distinct roots

C.F. = Aet + Ae2t
P.I. = cost + sint
let u = cost + sint
u1 = sint + cost
u11 = cost sint
= (cost sint) + 3(sint + cost) + 2(cost + sint) = 10cost
= + 3 + 2 = 10eq1 and 3 + 2 = 0eq2

from 2 = 3
= 10 = 10
= 1, = 3

General solution= CF + P I
= x = Aet + Be2t + cost + 3sint

(ii)

at rest x = 0, t = 0; x1 = 0, x = 0
x1 = Aet Be2t + cost + 3sint
= 0 = Ae0 + Be2(0) + cos(0) + 3sin(0) eq1
0 = Ae0 2B 2(0) sin(0) + 3cos(0) eq2

= 0 = A + B + 1eq1
0 = A 2B + 3eq2
A = 5, B = 4

Particular solution is
x = 5et + 4e2t + cost + 3sint

(iii)

when t = 4s
x = 5e4 + 4e8 + cos4 + 3sin4
= x = 3.014 (travelling in opposite direction)

with repitition
2 digits: the rst and second positions can be lled in 3 ways
33=9

three digits, since the number is less than 300 there are
2 ways to ll the rst position and 3 to ll the second and third
= 2 3 3 = 18
