Expert-verifiedIn Problems 25 – 28, use the elimination method to find a general solution for the given system of three equations in the three unknown functions x(t), y(t), z(t).
The solutions for the given linear system are
, and .
Elimination Procedure for 2 × 2 Systems:
To find a general solution for the system
Where and L4 are polynomials in :
Given that,
Let us rewrite the given system of equations into operator form.
Add the equation (4) and (5) together to eliminate z(t),
Multiply D+1 on equation (5). Then, subtract the equation with equation (6).
Subtract equations (7) and (8) to get
Since the auxiliary equation to the corresponding homogeneous equation is . The roots are and .
Then, the general solution of y is
Now derivate the equation (9)
Substitute the derivation in equation (7).
So, the complementary solution of the differential equation is
Let us assume that function:
Find the derivation of equation (12).
Use the derivation in equations (10) to get,
Now, equalize the like terms.
Then,
So, .
Then,
Now substitute the equation (9) and (13) in equation (4)
role="math"
So, the solution is founded.
