Using substitution, it is found that k = 2 satisfies the differential equation.
The solution is:
[tex]y = e^{2x} + ke^{-3x}[/tex]
The differential equation is:
[tex]4y - y^{\prime\prime} = 10e^{-3x}[/tex]
We replace y and it's derivatives in the solution, then:
[tex]y^{\prime}(x) = 2e^{2x} - 3ke^{-3x}[/tex]
[tex]y^{\prime\prime}(x) = 4e^{2x} + 9ke^{-3x}[/tex]
Then:
[tex]4y - y^{\prime\prime} = 10e^{-3x}[/tex]
[tex]4(e^{2x} + ke^{-3x}) - (4e^{2x} + 9ke^{-3x}) = 10e^{-3x}[/tex]
[tex]4ke^{-3x} - 9ke^{-3x} = 10e^{-3x}[/tex]
[tex]-5ke^{-3x} = 10e^{-3x}[/tex]
[tex]5k = -10[/tex]
[tex]k = -\frac{10}{5}[/tex]
[tex]k = -2[/tex]
k = 2 satisfies the differential equation.
