Answer

(a) $J'(0) = 0$ (b) $J''(0) = -\frac{1}{2}$

Work Step by Step

(a) It is given that $y = J(x)$ and $J(0) = 1$ $xy''+y'+xy = 0$ $xJ''(x)+J'(x)+xJ(x) = 0$ We can find $J'(0)$: $(0)J''(0)+J'(0)+(0)J(0) = 0$ $0+J'(0)+0 = 0$ $J'(0) = 0$ (b) We can find $J''(0)$: $xJ''(x)+J'(x)+xJ(x) = 0$ $J''(x)+xJ'''(x)+J''(x)+J(x)+xJ'(x) = 0$ $J''(0)+(0)J'''(0)+J''(0)+J(0)+(0)J'(0) = 0$ $J''(0)+0+J''(0)+J(0)+0 = 0$ $2J''(0)+1 = 0$ $2J''(0) = -1$ $J''(0) = -\frac{1}{2}$
