Differential Equations Verification Process

The video tutorial explains how to find and verify the general solution of a linear second order homogeneous differential equation with constant coefficients. It begins by identifying the type of differential equation and solving the characteristic equation. The process involves factorization to find distinct real roots, which determine the form of the general solution. The tutorial then demonstrates how to verify the solution by calculating derivatives and substituting them back into the original equation to ensure the left side equals zero.

• r = 2 and r = -1/2

Which form of the general solution is used for two distinct real roots?

• y = c1 * e^(ax) + c2 * e^(-ax)
