Question
If $y = 500e^{7x} + 600e^{-7x}$ show that $\frac{{{d^2}y}}{{d{x^2}}} = 49y$.

Answer

Given: $y = 500e^{7x} + 600e^{-7x} ...(i)$
$\therefore \frac{{dy}}{{dx}} = 500e^{7x}(7) + 600e^{-7x}(-7) = 500(7)e^{7x} - 600(7)e^{-7x}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{{{d^2}y}}{{d{x^2}}} $
$= 500(7)e^{7x}(7) - 600(7)e^{-7x}(-7) = 500(49)e^{7x} + 600(49){e^{-7x}}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{{{d^2}y}}{{d{x^2}}}  = 49[500e^{7x} + 600e^{-7x}]$
$= 49y [$From eq. $(i)]$
$\Rightarrow \frac{{{d^2}y}}{{d{x^2}}} = 49y$ Hence proved.
