Question: You can verify by substitution that y c = c 1 x + c 2 x -1 is a complementary function for the nonhomogeneous second-order

You can verify by substitution that yc = c1x + c2x-1 is a complementary function for the nonhomogeneous second-order equation

xy" + xy'-y = 72x5.But before applying the method of variation of parameters, you must first divide this equation by its leading coefficient x2 to rewrite it in the standard form
Thus f(x) = 72x3 in Eq. (22). Now proceed to solve the equations in (31) and thereby derive the particular solution
yp = 3x5.

xy" + xy'-y = 72x5.
