Answer

$y=c_{1}e^{-x}cos(2x)+c_{2}e^{-x}sin(2x)+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{8}e^{x}$

Work Step by Step

$y''+2y'+5y=0$ Use auxiliary equation $r^{2}+2r+5=0$ $r=\frac{-2±\sqrt (4-20)}{2(1)}$ $r=\frac{-2±4i}{2}$ $r=-1±2i$ $α=-1$ $β=2$ $y_{c}=e^{αx}(c_{1}cosβx+c_{2}sinβx)$ $y_{c}=e^{-x}(c_{1}cos2x+c_{2}sin2x)$ Given: Since $G(x)=1+e^{x}$ we seek a particular solution of form $y_{p}=A+Be^{x}$ $y_{p}'=Be^{x}$ $y_{p}''=Be^{x}$ Plug into original equation $Be^{x}+2Be^{x}+5A+5Be^{x}=1+e^{x}$ $Be^{x}(1+2+5)+5A=1+e^{x}$ $8Be^{x}+5A=1+e^{x}$ $B=\frac{1}{8}$ $A=\frac{1}{5}$ $y_{p}=\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{8}e^{x}$ $y=y_{p}+y_{c}$ $y=c_{1}e^{-x}cos(2x)+c_{2}e^{-x}sin(2x)+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{8}e^{x}$
