Verify that the function y = 4 sin 3x is a solution of the differential equation d2y/dx2 + 9y = 0.

Answer»

The given function is y = 4 sin 3x 

Differentiating both sides with respect to x, we have

Again, differentiating both sides with respect to x, we have

Putting values of d2y/dx2 and y in the given differential equation, we have 

L.H.S. = – 36 sin 3x + 9 (4 sin 3x) = – 36 sin 3x + 36 

sin 3x = 0 = R.H.S. 

Thus, y = 4 sin 3x is a solution of differential equation img 20.
