Expert-verifiedSolve the given initial value problem.
The solution of the given initial value is when and .
An initial value problem is an ordinary differential equation with a given initial condition. The solution of an ordinary differential equation is known as a general solution which consists of an arbitrary constant. The value of an arbitrary constant can be obtained by using the initial condition.
Given differential equation is
Then the auxiliary equation is
role="math" localid="1654075580000"
Therefore, the general solution is:
Given initial conditions are and
And
Then we have:
Substitute in the above equation
Therefore, the solution is .
