  Question 1: Score 0/0
This question is concerned with finding the solutions of the second order simultaneous equations

where a = 38, b = -9, c = 378, d = -79
(i)
Find the particular solutions to the differential equations which satisfy the initial conditions x = -10 and y = 7 at t = 0
together with the condition at t = 0..
For this part of the question give x as a function of t.
Omit the "x = " (8 marks)
Your Answer: -77(cos(4t))+ 67(cos(5t))
Comment: The particular solution required in this part is x = ""
(ii)
