Work Step by Step

Given: $y''+y'-2y=4x^2+5$ Substitute: $y''(x)+y'(x)-2y(x)\\ =2A_2+2A_2x+A_1-2(A_0+A_1x+A_2x^2)\\ =x^2(-2A_2)+x(2A_2-2A_1)+(2A_2+A_1-2A_0)\\ =4x^2+5$ Then $-2A_2=4\\ 2A_2-2A_1=0\\ 2A_2+A_1-2A_0=5$ Then $A_0=-\frac{9}{2} \\ A_1=-2\\ A_2=-2$ Hence, $y_p(x)=-2x^2-2x-\frac{9}{2}$ Find the solution. Substitute: $r^2e^{rx}+re^{rx}-2e^{rx}$ Put: $r^2e^{rx}+re^{rx}-2e^{rx}=0\\ e^{rx}(r^2+r-2)=0 \\$ Since $e^{rx} \ne0 \rightarrow r^2+r-2=0\\ \rightarrow (r+2)(r-1)=0\\ \rightarrow r=-2,r=1$ We found $y_1(x)=C_1e^{-2x}\\ y_2(x)=C_2e^{x}\\ $ The solutions to the given problem are: $y=C_1e^{-2x}+C_2e^{x}+2x^2-2x-\frac{9}{2}$
