Question
Solve the following differential equation:
$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+2\text{y}=\text{xe}^{4\text{x}}$

Answer

We have,

$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+2\text{y}=\text{xe}^{4\text{x}}\ \dots(1)$

Clearly, it is a linear differential equation of the form

$\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\text{Py}=\text{Q}$

where

$\text{P}=2$

$\text{Q}=\text{xe}^{4\text{x}}$

$\therefore$ I.F. $=\text{e}^{\int\text{Pdx}}$

$=\text{e}^{\int2\text{dx}}$

$=\text{e}^{2\text{x}}$

Multiplying both sides of (1) by e2x, we get

$\text{e}^{2\text{x}}\Big(\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+2\text{y}\Big)=\text{e}^{2\text{x}}\times\text{xe}^{4\text{x}}$

$\Rightarrow\ \text{e}^{2\text{x}}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+2\text{e}^{2\text{x}}\text{y}=\text{xe}^{6\text{x}}$

Integrating both sides with respect to x, we get

$\text{e}^{2\text{x}}\text{y}=\int\text{e}^{6\text{x}}\text{xdx + C}$

$\Rightarrow\ \text{e}^{2\text{x}}\text{y}=\text{x}\int\text{e}^{6\text{x}}\text{dx}-\int\Big[\frac{\text{d}}{\text{dx}}(\text{x})\int\text{e}^{6\text{x}}\text{dx}\Big]\text{dx + C}$

$\Rightarrow\ \text{e}^{2\text{x}}\text{y}=\frac{\text{x}\text{e}^{6\text{x}}}{6}-\frac{\text{e}^{6\text{x}}}{36}+\text{C}$

$\Rightarrow\ \text{y}=\frac{\text{xe}^{4\text{x}}}{6}-\frac{\text{e}^{4\text{x}}}{36}+\text{Ce}^{-2\text{x}}$

Hence, $\text{y}=\frac{\text{xe}^{4\text{x}}}{6}-\frac{\text{e}^{4\text{x}}}{36}+\text{Ce}^{-2\text{x}}$ is the required solution.
