Definition: A 2nd order ordinary differential equation of the form 𝒅𝒙𝟐 + 𝑷𝟏 𝒅𝒙 + 𝑷𝟐 𝒚 = 𝑿 is called linear
if 𝑷𝟏 , 𝑷𝟐 and 𝑿 are either constant or functions of 𝑥 only. For example,
𝒅𝟐 𝒚 𝒅𝒚
𝟐
+𝟓 + 𝟔𝒚 = 𝒆𝒙
𝒅𝒙 𝒅𝒙
𝒅𝟐 𝒚 𝒅𝒚
Homogeneous and non-homogeneous ODE: The linear differential equation 𝒅𝒙𝟐 + 𝑷𝟏 𝒅𝒙 + 𝑷𝟐 𝒚 = 𝑿 is
called homogeneous if 𝑿 = 𝟎, otherwise it is called non-homogenous. For example,
𝒅𝟐 𝒚 𝒅𝒚
𝒅𝒙𝟐
+ 𝒅𝒙 − 𝟔𝒚 = 𝟎 is a homogeneous ordinary linear differential equation whereas
𝒅𝟐 𝒚 𝒅𝒚
− + 𝟐𝟎𝒚 = 𝒆𝟑𝒙 is a non-homogeneous ordinary linear differential equation.

Answers:
(i) Let 𝑦 = 𝑒 𝑚𝑥 be a trial solution of the homogeneous ordinary linear differential equation
𝑑2𝑦 𝑑𝑦
𝑑𝑥 2
− 5 𝑑𝑥 + 6𝑦 = 0 (1)
𝑑𝑦 𝑑2𝑦
Then, 𝑑𝑥 = 𝑚𝑒 𝑚𝑥 , 𝑑𝑥 2 = 𝑚2 𝑒 𝑚𝑥 .
Putting these values in eq. (1), we get
𝑚2 𝑒 𝑚𝑥 − 5𝑚𝑒 𝑚𝑥 + 6𝑒 𝑚𝑥 = 0 ⇒ 𝑚2 − 5𝑚 + 6 𝑒 𝑚𝑥 = 0
𝑚𝑥
Since, 𝑦 = 𝑒 is our trial solution, it cannot be zero. Hence, we obtain the A.E. as
𝑚2 − 5𝑚 + 6 = 0
which gives 𝑚 = 2,3.
Thus, the solution is given by

Determination of the complementary function (C.F.):
To find C.F. we must have
𝐷 2 − 5𝐷 + 6 𝑦 = 0 (1)
Let 𝑦 = 𝑒 𝑚𝑥 be a trial solution of (1). Then the auxiliary equation becomes
𝑚2 − 5𝑚 + 6 = 0 which gives 𝑚 = 3,2
∴ C.F. = 𝐴𝑒 3𝑥 + 𝐵𝑒 2𝑥 where 𝐴 and 𝐵 are arbitrary constants.

Answers:
(i) We have 𝑥 2 𝐷2 + 𝑥𝐷 − 1 𝑦 = sin log 𝑥 + 𝑥 cos log 𝑥 (1)
Let 𝑧 = log 𝑥.
𝑑𝑦 𝑑𝑦 𝑑
∴ 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 = 𝑑𝑧 , i.e., 𝑥𝐷𝑦 = 𝐷 ′ 𝑦 where 𝐷 ′ ≡ 𝑑𝑧
𝑑2𝑦 𝑑2𝑦 𝑑𝑦 2
and 𝑥 2 𝑑𝑥 2 = 𝑑𝑧 2 − 𝑑𝑧 , i.e., 𝑥 2 𝐷 2 𝑦 = 𝐷 ′ 𝑦 − 𝐷 ′ 𝑦
∴ (1) reduces to
𝑑2𝑦 2
𝑑𝑧 2
− 𝑦 = sin 𝑧 + 𝑒 𝑧 cos 𝑧 , i.e., 𝐷 ′ − 1 𝑦 = sin 𝑧 + 𝑒 𝑧 cos 𝑧 (2)
To determine the complementary function (C.F.) of (2) let 𝑦 = 𝑒 𝑚𝑧 be a trial solution of
2
𝐷′ − 1 𝑦 = 0
∴ we get 𝑚2 − 1 = 0, i.e., 𝑚 = ±1
∴ C.F. = 𝐴𝑒 𝑧 + 𝐵𝑒 −𝑧 = 𝐴𝑥 + 𝐵/𝑥, where 𝐴 and 𝐵 are arbitrary constants.

Determination of the complementary function (C.F.):
The C.F. is the solution of
𝑑2𝑦
𝑑𝑥 2
+𝑦 =0 (2)
Let 𝑦 = 𝑒 𝑚𝑥 be a trial solution of (2). Then the auxiliary equation becomes
𝑚2 + 1 = 0 which gives 𝑚 = ±𝑖
∴ C.F. = 𝐴 cos 𝑥 + 𝐵 sin 𝑥 where 𝐴 and 𝐵 are arbitrary constants.
Determination of the particular integral (P.I.):
Let 𝑦1 = cos 𝑥, 𝑦2 = sin 𝑥 and 𝑋 = sec 3 𝑥 tan 𝑥

∴ Wronskian (W) = 𝑦 ′ 𝑦 ′ = =1≠0
1 2 −sin 𝑥 cos 𝑥
Hence 𝑦1 and 𝑦2 are two linearly independent solutions of (2).
Therefore, let P.I.= 𝑢𝑦1 + 𝑣𝑦2 where 𝑢 and 𝑣 are functions of 𝑥 and are given by
𝑦2 𝑋𝑑𝑥 𝑦1 𝑋𝑑𝑥
𝑢=− and 𝑣 = .

(ii) Denoting 𝐷 ≡ 𝑑𝑡 , the given system of equations can be written as
𝐷 + 3 𝑥 + 𝑦 = 𝑒𝑡 (1)
−𝑥 + 𝐷 + 1 𝑦 = 𝑒 2𝑡 (2)
Operating (𝐷 + 1) on both sides of (1) and then subtracting (2) from it, we get
𝐷 + 1 𝐷 + 3 𝑥 + 𝑥 = 𝐷 + 1 𝑒 𝑡 − 𝑒 2𝑡
⇒ 𝐷 2 + 4𝐷 + 4 𝑥 = 2𝑒 𝑡 − 𝑒 2𝑡 (3)
The complementary function (C.F.) of (3) is found from
𝐷 2 + 4𝐷 + 4 𝑥 = 0 (4)
Let 𝑥 = 𝑒 𝑚𝑡 be a trial solution of (4). Then the auxiliary equation becomes
𝑚2 + 4𝑚 + 4 = 0
which gives 𝑚 = −2, −2
∴ C.F. = 𝐴 + 𝐵𝑡 𝑒 −2𝑡
