In Exercises 1–4, show that each function y=f(x) is a solution of the accompanying differential equation.
1. 2y' + 3y = e^(-x)
c. y = e^(-x) + Ce^(-(3/2)x)

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
Identify the given differential equation: \(2y' + 3y = e^{-x}\) and the proposed solution: \(y = e^{-x} + Ce^{-\frac{3}{2}x}\).
Compute the derivative \(y'\) of the given function \(y\). Since \(y = e^{-x} + Ce^{-\frac{3}{2}x}\), use the chain rule to find \(y' = -e^{-x} - \frac{3}{2}Ce^{-\frac{3}{2}x}\).
Substitute \(y\) and \(y'\) into the left-hand side of the differential equation: calculate \(2y' + 3y = 2\left(-e^{-x} - \frac{3}{2}Ce^{-\frac{3}{2}x}\right) + 3\left(e^{-x} + Ce^{-\frac{3}{2}x}\right)\).
Simplify the expression by distributing and combining like terms carefully, paying attention to coefficients and exponents.
Verify that after simplification, the expression equals the right-hand side of the differential equation, \(e^{-x}\), confirming that the given function is indeed a solution.
