Short Answer

In Problems 1–19, use the method of Laplace transforms to solve the given initial value problem. Here x′, y′, etc., denotes differentiation with respect to t; so does the symbol D.

x''+y=1;x(0)=1,x'(0)=1x+y''=-1;y(0)=1,y'(0)=-1

The solution is

x(t)=cost+et-1,   y(t)=cost-et+1

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1: Given information

The differential equations are given as:

x''+y=1;x(0)=1,x'(0)=1x+y''=-1;y(0)=1,y'(0)=-1

Step 2: Apply the Laplace transform

Given initial value equations are,

x''+y=1;x(0)=1,x'(0)=1....(1)x+y''=-1;y(0)=1,y'(0)=-1....(2)

Taking Laplace transform of equation first we get

s2x(s)-sx(0)-x'(0)+y(s)=1ss2x(s)-s-1+y(s)=1ss2x(s)+y(s)=1+s2+ss....(3)

Taking Laplace transform of equation second we get

x(s)+s2y(s)-sy(0)-y'(0)=1sx(s)+s2y(s)-s+1=-1sx(s)+s2y(s)=s2-s-1s.....(4)

Solving equation third and fourth we get

y(s)=s4-s3-2s2-s-1s(s4-1)

Using partial fraction we can write as

y(s)=ss2+1-1s-1+1s

Taking inverse Laplace transform we get

y(t)=cost-et+1

Step 3: Solve the third and fourth equation

On solving equation (3) and (4) we, obtain

x(s)=s4+s3+s+1s(s4-1)

Using partial fraction we can write as

x(s)=ss2+1+1s-1-1s

Taking inverse Laplace transform we get

x(t)=cost+et-1

Hence

x(t)=cost+et-1,   y(t)=cost-et+1

Step 4: conclusion

The final solution is

x(t)=cost+et-1,   y(t)=cost-et+1
