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, _linear, _nonhomogeneous]]

\[ \boxed {y^{\prime \prime \prime }+y^{\prime \prime }-y^{\prime }-y=4 \,{\mathrm e}^{-x} \left (1-6 x \right )-2 x \cos \left (x \right )+2 \left (x +1\right ) \sin \left (x \right )} \] This is higher order nonhomogeneous ODE. Let the solution be \[ y = y_h + y_p \] Where \(y_h\) is the solution to the homogeneous ODE And \(y_p\) is a particular solution to the nonhomogeneous ODE. \(y_h\) is the solution to \[ y^{\prime \prime \prime }+y^{\prime \prime }-y^{\prime }-y = 0 \] The characteristic equation is \[ \lambda ^{3}+\lambda ^{2}-\lambda -1 = 0 \] The roots of the above equation are \begin {align*} \lambda _1 &= 1\\ \lambda _2 &= -1\\ \lambda _3 &= -1 \end {align*}

Therefore the homogeneous solution is \[ y_h(x)=c_{1} {\mathrm e}^{-x}+x \,{\mathrm e}^{-x} c_{2} +{\mathrm e}^{x} c_{3} \] The fundamental set of solutions for the homogeneous solution are the following \begin{align*} y_1 &= {\mathrm e}^{-x} \\ y_2 &= x \,{\mathrm e}^{-x} \\ y_3 &= {\mathrm e}^{x} \\ \end{align*} Now the particular solution to the given ODE is found \[ y^{\prime \prime \prime }+y^{\prime \prime }-y^{\prime }-y = 4 \,{\mathrm e}^{-x} \left (1-6 x \right )-2 x \cos \left (x \right )+2 \left (x +1\right ) \sin \left (x \right ) \] The particular solution is found using the method of undetermined coefficients. Looking at the RHS of the ode, which is \[ 4 \,{\mathrm e}^{-x} \left (1-6 x \right )-2 x \cos \left (x \right )+2 \left (x +1\right ) \sin \left (x \right ) \] Shows that the corresponding undetermined set of the basis functions (UC_set) for the trial solution is \[ [\{x \,{\mathrm e}^{-x}, {\mathrm e}^{-x}\}, \{x \cos \left (x \right ), \sin \left (x \right ) x, \cos \left (x \right ), \sin \left (x \right )\}] \] While the set of the basis functions for the homogeneous solution found earlier is \[ \{x \,{\mathrm e}^{-x}, {\mathrm e}^{x}, {\mathrm e}^{-x}\} \] Since \({\mathrm e}^{-x}\) is duplicated in the UC_set, then this basis is multiplied by extra \(x\). The UC_set becomes \[ [\{x \,{\mathrm e}^{-x}, x^{2} {\mathrm e}^{-x}\}, \{x \cos \left (x \right ), \sin \left (x \right ) x, \cos \left (x \right ), \sin \left (x \right )\}] \] Since \(x \,{\mathrm e}^{-x}\) is duplicated in the UC_set, then this basis is multiplied by extra \(x\). The UC_set becomes \[ [\{x^{2} {\mathrm e}^{-x}, {\mathrm e}^{-x} x^{3}\}, \{x \cos \left (x \right ), \sin \left (x \right ) x, \cos \left (x \right ), \sin \left (x \right )\}] \] Since there was duplication between the basis functions in the UC_set and the basis functions of the homogeneous solution, the trial solution is a linear combination of all the basis function in the above updated UC_set. \[ y_p = A_{1} x^{2} {\mathrm e}^{-x}+A_{2} {\mathrm e}^{-x} x^{3}+A_{3} x \cos \left (x \right )+A_{4} \sin \left (x \right ) x +A_{5} \cos \left (x \right )+A_{6} \sin \left (x \right ) \] The unknowns \(\{A_{1}, A_{2}, A_{3}, A_{4}, A_{5}, A_{6}\}\) are found by substituting the above trial solution \(y_p\) into the ODE and comparing coefficients. Substituting the trial solution into the ODE and simplifying gives \[ -12 A_{2} {\mathrm e}^{-x} x -2 A_{5} \cos \left (x \right )-2 A_{6} \sin \left (x \right )+2 A_{5} \sin \left (x \right )-2 A_{6} \cos \left (x \right )-2 A_{3} \sin \left (x \right )+2 A_{4} \cos \left (x \right )+6 A_{2} {\mathrm e}^{-x}-2 A_{3} x \cos \left (x \right )-2 A_{4} \sin \left (x \right ) x -4 A_{3} \cos \left (x \right )+2 A_{3} x \sin \left (x \right )-2 A_{4} \cos \left (x \right ) x -4 A_{4} \sin \left (x \right )-4 A_{1} {\mathrm e}^{-x} = 4 \,{\mathrm e}^{-x} \left (1-6 x \right )-2 x \cos \left (x \right )+2 \left (x +1\right ) \sin \left (x \right ) \] Solving for the unknowns by comparing coefficients results in \[ [A_{1} = 2, A_{2} = 2, A_{3} = 1, A_{4} = 0, A_{5} = 0, A_{6} = -2] \] Substituting the above back in the above trial solution \(y_p\), gives the particular solution \[ y_p = 2 x^{2} {\mathrm e}^{-x}+2 \,{\mathrm e}^{-x} x^{3}+x \cos \left (x \right )-2 \sin \left (x \right ) \] Therefore the general solution is \begin{align*} y &= y_h + y_p \\ &= \left (c_{1} {\mathrm e}^{-x}+x \,{\mathrm e}^{-x} c_{2} +{\mathrm e}^{x} c_{3}\right ) + \left (2 x^{2} {\mathrm e}^{-x}+2 \,{\mathrm e}^{-x} x^{3}+x \cos \left (x \right )-2 \sin \left (x \right )\right ) \\ \end{align*} Which simplifies to \[ y = \left (c_{2} x +c_{1} \right ) {\mathrm e}^{-x}+{\mathrm e}^{x} c_{3} +2 x^{2} {\mathrm e}^{-x}+2 \,{\mathrm e}^{-x} x^{3}+x \cos \left (x \right )-2 \sin \left (x \right ) \]

Summary

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

Verification of solutions

\[ y = \left (c_{2} x +c_{1} \right ) {\mathrm e}^{-x}+{\mathrm e}^{x} c_{3} +2 x^{2} {\mathrm e}^{-x}+2 \,{\mathrm e}^{-x} x^{3}+x \cos \left (x \right )-2 \sin \left (x \right ) \] Verified OK.
