i solved homogenous but
y"+y'+4y = 2sinh(T)
is giving me trouble
also have a hint
sinh t = (e^t - e^-t)/2

also my "guess" was
aE^t +Be^-t=Y
maybe my guess was wrong?

That should be fine.
 
Why are you asking? Have you tried putting that into the equation? If you are used to working with hyperbolic functions directly, you can also use y= C cosh(t)+ D sinh(t).
 
tried this guess but yield wrong answer guess ill do a few more times thanks all
