Islder Hermites equdtion y" – 2æy + 4y = 0 and verify for yourself that y1 = 1 – 2x2 is a solution. The "reduction of order" technique for finding a second solution, y2, that is linearly independent of the first, is to set y2 = Y1v and fi non-constant v that makes yY2 ɑ solution. This yields a first order equation for w = v' of the form w' + Pw = 0. Perform this technique and find the function P that appears in the above equation. P (x) =
