Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
Basically, my TA's solutions to his worksheet said it was true, and I'm not sure if he implied that y1 and y2 are linearly independent solutions, since in that case it would definitely be true. I'm not sure if I got the vocab mixed up or something. (y1 can be e^x and y2 can be 2e^x and that would make my original question false, right?)
