IVLE8: [MA1506] Tutorial Notes 4 and The Lecture Notes Problem

Dear all,

Here is the tutorial notes 4: http://www.mediafire.com/?3umwuz1cxzs.

For the Lecture notes Example 25, you can find the rules for Cauchy-Euler equation here: http://www.mediafire.com/?8zwtvdgdggg.

One question is why not to use the method of variation of parameters directly. The answer is the method is based on we know the general solution to the homogeneous problem, (that is, we need to know y1 and y2). So the rule in this file is to tell you how to find y1 and y2. Then you can use variation of parameters to solve it.

If you find any sentences or formula in my tutorial notes are difficult to understand, do not waste your time on thinking about it, and just send an email to me. Maybe that is just a typing error.


Best wishes,

Chenyuan
