Answer

$y=c_{1}e^{\frac{-3}{4}x}cos(\frac{x}{4})+c_{2}e^{\frac{-3}{4}x}sin(\frac{x}{4})$

Work Step by Step

$8y''+12y'+5y=0$ Use auxiliary equation, $8r^{2}+12r+5=0$ $8r^{2}+12r+5=0$ $r=\frac{-12±\sqrt ((12)^{2}-4(8)(5))}{2(8)}$ $r=\frac{-12±\sqrt (144-160)}{16}$ $r=\frac{-12±\sqrt (-16)}{16}$ $r=-\frac{3}{4}±\frac{i}{4}$ Theorem 4 $y=c_{1}e^{αx}cos(βx)+c_{2}e^{αx}sin(βx)$ $y=c_{1}e^{\frac{-3}{4}x}cos(\frac{x}{4})+c_{2}e^{\frac{-3}{4}x}sin(\frac{x}{4})$
