Homework Statement



I've got

y'' - ω2y = sin(ωx) + sinh(ωx) where y(a) = A, y(b) = B

Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution



Yc = C1 Sinh(ωx) + C2 Cosh(ωx)

and I got my Yp to be -1/2*sin(ωx) + 1/2*sinh(ωx)

I'm not sure about getting the Y general. Any pointers?

Thanks

The whole point of finding "Yc" and "Yp" is that the general solution to the entire equation is the sum of those.
