The type(s) of ODE detected by this program : "second_order_laplace", "second_order_linear_constant_coeff"

Maple gives the following as the ode type

[[_2nd_order, _missing_x]]

\[ \boxed {y^{\prime \prime }-y^{\prime }-6 y=0} \] With initial conditions \begin {align*} [y \left (0\right ) = 1, y^{\prime }\left (0\right ) = -1] \end {align*}

3.1.1 Existence and uniqueness analysis

This is a linear ODE. In canonical form it is written as \begin {align*} y^{\prime \prime } + p(t)y^{\prime } + q(t) y &= F \end {align*}

Where here \begin {align*} p(t) &=-1\\ q(t) &=-6\\ F &=0 \end {align*}

Hence the ode is \begin {align*} y^{\prime \prime }-y^{\prime }-6 y = 0 \end {align*}

The domain of \(p(t)=-1\) is \[ \{-\infty

Solving using the Laplace transform method. Let \begin {align*} \mathcal {L}\left (y\right ) =Y(s) \end {align*}

Taking the Laplace transform of the ode and using the relations that \begin {align*} \mathcal {L}\left (y^{\prime }\right ) &= s Y(s) - y \left (0\right )\\ \mathcal {L}\left (y^{\prime \prime }\right ) &= s^2 Y(s) - y'(0) - s y \left (0\right ) \end {align*}

The given ode now becomes an algebraic equation in the Laplace domain \begin {align*} s^{2} Y \left (s \right )-y^{\prime }\left (0\right )-s y \left (0\right )-s Y \left (s \right )+y \left (0\right )-6 Y \left (s \right ) = 0\tag {1} \end {align*}

But the initial conditions are \begin {align*} y \left (0\right )&=1\\ y'(0) &=-1 \end {align*}

Substituting these initial conditions in above in Eq (1) gives \begin {align*} s^{2} Y \left (s \right )+2-s -s Y \left (s \right )-6 Y \left (s \right ) = 0 \end {align*}

Solving the above equation for \(Y(s)\) results in \begin {align*} Y(s) = \frac {s -2}{s^{2}-s -6} \end {align*}

Applying partial fractions decomposition results in \[ Y(s)= \frac {1}{5 s -15}+\frac {4}{5 \left (s +2\right )} \] The inverse Laplace of each term above is now found, which gives \begin {align*} \mathcal {L}^{-1}\left (\frac {1}{5 s -15}\right ) &= \frac {{\mathrm e}^{3 t}}{5}\\ \mathcal {L}^{-1}\left (\frac {4}{5 \left (s +2\right )}\right ) &= \frac {4 \,{\mathrm e}^{-2 t}}{5} \end {align*}

Adding the above results and simplifying gives \[ y=\frac {{\mathrm e}^{3 t}}{5}+\frac {4 \,{\mathrm e}^{-2 t}}{5} \] Simplifying the solution gives \[ y = \frac {\left ({\mathrm e}^{5 t}+4\right ) {\mathrm e}^{-2 t}}{5} \]

Summary

The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} y &= \frac {\left ({\mathrm e}^{5 t}+4\right ) {\mathrm e}^{-2 t}}{5} \\ \end{align*}
