Answer 1

Answer:

1. D

2. A

3. C

4. B

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

The particular function is:

$t(1 + \sin{t}) = t + t\sin{t}$

We have a first degree polynomial and a first degree polynomial multiplying a sine function.

The particular solution of a polynomial of degree n is another polynomial of degree n.

The particular solution of a sin(at) function is a sum of Asin(at) and Bcos(at).

So, the particular solution is

$A_{0}t + A_{1} + (B_{0} + B_{1})\sin{t} + (C_{0}t + C_{1})\cos{t}$

So 1 and D.

2.

The particular function is:

$t^{2}\sin{2t}+(5t−7)\cos{2t}$

$\sin{2t}$ and $\cos{2t}$ have particular solutions in the same format. This means that we can multiply the particular solutions by t. The highest degree of the polynomials here is 2, so we have a sum of sin(2t) and cos(2t) each multiplied by a second order polynomial.

So

$yp=t(A_{0}t^{2}+A_{1}t+A2)\sin{2t}+t(B_{0}t^{2}+B1t+B2)\cos{2t}$

The particular solution of 2 is A.

3.

The particular function is

$3e^{−t}+2e{−t}\cos{t}+4e{−t}t^{2}\sin{t}$

The particular solution of an exponential is another exponential.

So the solution is C.

4.

The particular function is:

$2t^{2} + 4te^{2t} + t\sin{2t}$

Polynomial, polynomial multiplying an exponential and polynomial multiplying a sine functions.

So the answer is B.
