Answer

$y_p(x)=A xe^x+B \cos x+C \sin x$

Work Step by Step

Consider $G(x)=e^{\alpha x} A(x) \sin mx $ or $G(x)=e^{\beta x} A(x) \cos mx $ The trial solution for the method of undetermined coefficients is defined as: $y_p(x)=e^{\alpha x} B(x) \sin mx +e^{\beta x} C(x) \cos mx$ On comparing the above equation with the given equation, we get $m=k=1$ Thus, the trial solution for the method of undetermined coefficients is: $y_{p_1}(x)=A xe^x$ and $y_{p_2}(x)=B \cos x+C \sin x$ Hence, $y_p(x)=A xe^x+B \cos x+C \sin x$
