Homework Statement
This is the original question:
\frac{d^{2}y}{dx^{2}}-\frac{6x}{3x^{2}+1}\frac{dy}{dx}+\lambda(3x^{2}+1)^{2}y=0
(Hint: Let t=x^{3}+x)
y(0)=0
y(\pi)=02. The attempt at a solution
This might be all wrong, but this is all I can think of
\frac{dt}{dx}=3x^{2}+1
so \frac{d^{2}y}{dx^{2}}-\frac{6x}{\frac{dt}{dx}}\frac{dy}{dx}+\lambda(\frac{dt}{dx})^{2}y=0After this, I do not know how to proceed to eliminate d^{2}y/dx^{2}, much less what else to do. Help!
Thank you very much for your time,
