If y = y(x) is the solution of the differential equation dydx + 2y = (2x), y(0) = 34, then y ( 8 ) is equal to :
- e- /8
- e /4
- e- /4
- e /8
Answer
(3) e- /4
Solution
Linear DE: I.F. = e 2 dx = e2x
y e2x = e2x 2x dx = e2x8(2 2x - 2 2x) + c
eax bx dx = eaxa2 + b2(a bx - b bx)
y(0) = 34: 34 = - 14 + c c = 1 y = 2x - 2x4 + e-2x
x = 8: 4 = 4 y ( 8 ) = e- /4
Answer: (3)
