Short Answer

Use the annihilator method to show that iff(x)in (4) has the form f(x)=acosβx+bsinβx,

then equation (4) has a particular solution of the form

(18)yp(x)=xs{Acosβx+Bsinβx} ,where s is chosen to be the smallest nonnegative integer such that x3cosβx and x3sinβxare not solutions to the corresponding homogeneous equation

yp=xs(Acosβx+Bsinβx)is the form of particular solution.

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1: Definition

A linear differential operatorAis said to annihilate a functionfif A[f](x)=0--(2)for all. That is, A annihilates fif fis a solution to the homogeneous linear differential equation (2) on (-,).

Step 2: For particular solution

Equation (4) is given by any(n)+an-1yn-1+..+a0y=f

Also given f(x)=acosβx+bsinβx

Then, anDn+an-1Dn-1+..+a0y=acosβx+bsinβx

So, sinβxcosβx is annihilated byD2+β2

So, D2+β2anDn+an-1Dn-1+..+a0y=0

For particular solution i.e; yp check if cosβx,sinβxare solutions to homogeneous, particular solution is different than homogeneous solution choose

yp=xs(Acosβx+Bsinβx)
