Question

Express the following inhomogeneous system of first-order differential

equations for x(t) and y(t) in matrix form:

x˙ = 2x + y + 3e^t

,

y˙ = 4x − y.

a) Write down, also in matrix form, the corresponding homogeneous

system of equations.

(b) Find the eigenvalues of the matrix of coefficients and an eigenvector

corresponding to each eigenvalue. 

(c) Hence write down the complementary function for the system of

equations.
