The type(s) of ODE detected by this program : "higher_order_linear_constant_coefficients_ODE"

Maple gives the following as the ode type

[[_3rd_order, _missing_x]]

\[ \boxed {2 y^{\prime \prime \prime }+3 y^{\prime \prime }-2 y^{\prime }-3 y=0} \] The characteristic equation is \[ 2 \lambda ^{3}+3 \lambda ^{2}-2 \lambda -3 = 0 \] The roots of the above equation are \begin {align*} \lambda _1 &= 1\\ \lambda _2 &= -{\frac {3}{2}}\\ \lambda _3 &= -1 \end {align*}

Therefore the homogeneous solution is \[ y_h(x)=c_{1} {\mathrm e}^{-x}+c_{2} {\mathrm e}^{x}+{\mathrm e}^{-\frac {3 x}{2}} c_{3} \] The fundamental set of solutions for the homogeneous solution are the following \begin {align*} y_1 &= {\mathrm e}^{-x}\\ y_2 &= {\mathrm e}^{x}\\ y_3 &= {\mathrm e}^{-\frac {3 x}{2}} \end {align*}

Summary

The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} y &= c_{1} {\mathrm e}^{-x}+c_{2} {\mathrm e}^{x}+{\mathrm e}^{-\frac {3 x}{2}} c_{3} \\ \end{align*}

Verification of solutions

\[ y = c_{1} {\mathrm e}^{-x}+c_{2} {\mathrm e}^{x}+{\mathrm e}^{-\frac {3 x}{2}} c_{3} \] Verified OK.
