Homework Statement
Solve: 2x2y" + xy' - y = 3x4
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I know this is a Euler Cauchy solution because of the x2 before the y" in the ODE.
I try to solve the characteristic equation m2 +(a-1)m + b = 0
I get 2m2 + (1-1)m - 1 =0 or 2m2 - 1 = 0
What I tried was:
2(m2-1) = 0
So one root would be m = 1
But I still don't think that is the correct solution
