Which of the following options is the particular solution of the differential equation y'' − 6y' + 9y = 2e^(3t)?
Show answerHide answer
Correct answer: (B) t²e^(3t)
Explanation
The auxiliary equation (m - 3)² = 0 has 3 as a double root, so try At²e^(3t). Substituting gives 2A = 2, so A = 1 and the particular solution is t²e^(3t).
