Suppose that r1 and r2 are roots of ar2 + br + c = 0 and that r1 = r2; then exp(r1t) and exp(r2t) are solutions of the differential equation ay + by + cy = 0. Show that φ (t; r1, r2) = er2t − er1t r2 −

The Correct Question is:

Suppose that r1 and r2 are roots of ar² + br + c = 0 and that r1 = r2; then e^(r1t) and e^(r2t) are solutions of the differential equation

ay'' + by' + cy = 0.

Show that

φ (t; r1, r2) = [e^(r2t) - e^(r1t )]/(r2 - r1)

is a solution of the differential equation.

φ (t; r1, r2) is a solution of the differential equation, and it shown.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the differential equation

ay'' + by' + cy = 0

and r1 and r2 are the roots of its auxiliary equation.

We want to show that

φ (t; r1, r2) = [e^(r2t) - e^(r1t )]/(r2 - r1)

satisfies the given differential equation, that is

aφ'' + bφ' + cφ = 0 (*)

Where φ = φ (t; r1, r2)

We now differentiate φ twice in succession, with respect to t.

φ' = [r2e^(r2t) - r1e^(r1t )]/(r2 - r1)

φ'' = [r2²e^(r2t) - r1²e^(r1t )]/(r2 - r1)

Using these in (*)

We have

a[r2e^(r2t) - r1e^(r1t )]/(r2 - r1) + [r2²e^(r2t) - r1²e^(r1t )]/(r2 - r1) + c[e^(r2t) - e^(r1t )]/(r2 - r1)

= [(ar2² + br2 + c)e^(r2t) - (ar1² + br1 + c)e^(r1t)]/(r1 - r2)

We know that r1 and r2 are the roots of the auxiliary equation

ar² + br + c = 0

and r1 = r2

This implies that

ar1² + br1 + c = ar2² + br2 + c = 0

And hence,

[(ar2² + br2 + c)e^(r2t) - (ar1² + br1 + c)e^(r1t)]/(r1 - r2) = 0

Therefore,

aφ'' + bφ' + cφ = 0

answer: ok

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
