Answer

$y(x)=c_1+c_2e^{3x}\sin 4x+c_3e^{3x}\cos 4x$

Work Step by Step

We are given $y'''-6y''+25y'=x^2$ Solve the auxiliary equation for the differential equation. $r^3-6r^3+25r=0$ Factor and solve for the roots. $r(r^2-6r+25)=0$ Roots are: $r_1=0$, as a multiplicity of 1, $r_2=3+4i$ as a multiplicity of 1 and $r_3=3-4i$ as a multiplicity of 1. The general solution is $y(x)=c_1+c_2e^{3x}\sin 4x+c_3e^{3x}\cos 4x+A_0x+B_0x^2$ The trial solution for $y_p=A_0x+B_0x^2$ can be computed as by plugging back into the given differential equation. $0-12B_0+25A_0+50B_0x=x^2$ then $A_0=0\\ B_=0$ Hence, $y(x)=c_1+c_2e^{3x}\sin 4x+c_3e^{3x}\cos 4x$
