The type(s) of ODE detected by this program : "higher_order_linear_constant_coefficients_ODE"
Maple gives the following as the ode type
[[_high_order, _missing_x]]
\[ \boxed {y^{\prime \prime \prime \prime }+6 y^{\prime \prime \prime }+15 y^{\prime \prime }+20 y^{\prime }+12 y=0} \] The characteristic equation is \[ \lambda ^{4}+6 \lambda ^{3}+15 \lambda ^{2}+20 \lambda +12 = 0 \] The roots of the above equation are \begin {align*} \lambda _1 &= i \sqrt {2}-1\\ \lambda _2 &= -i \sqrt {2}-1\\ \lambda _3 &= -2\\ \lambda _4 &= -2 \end {align*}
Therefore the homogeneous solution is \[ y_h(x)=c_{1} {\mathrm e}^{-2 x}+x \,{\mathrm e}^{-2 x} c_{2} +{\mathrm e}^{\left (-i \sqrt {2}-1\right ) x} c_{3} +{\mathrm e}^{\left (i \sqrt {2}-1\right ) x} c_{4} \] The fundamental set of solutions for the homogeneous solution are the following \begin {align*} y_1 &= {\mathrm e}^{-2 x}\\ y_2 &= x \,{\mathrm e}^{-2 x}\\ y_3 &= {\mathrm e}^{\left (-i \sqrt {2}-1\right ) x}\\ y_4 &= {\mathrm e}^{\left (i \sqrt {2}-1\right ) x} \end {align*}
Summary
The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} y &= c_{1} {\mathrm e}^{-2 x}+x \,{\mathrm e}^{-2 x} c_{2} +{\mathrm e}^{\left (-i \sqrt {2}-1\right ) x} c_{3} +{\mathrm e}^{\left (i \sqrt {2}-1\right ) x} c_{4} \\ \end{align*}
Verification of solutions
\[ y = c_{1} {\mathrm e}^{-2 x}+x \,{\mathrm e}^{-2 x} c_{2} +{\mathrm e}^{\left (-i \sqrt {2}-1\right ) x} c_{3} +{\mathrm e}^{\left (i \sqrt {2}-1\right ) x} c_{4} \] Verified OK.
