Solution Summary

A second linearly independent solution is found given the differential equation & non-trivial solution f. All work is shown.

Solution Preview

x^2*y" + 6xy' + 6y' + 6y = 0

x>0, f(x) = 1/x^2

y" + [6(x+1)/x^2]*y' + (6/x^2)y = 0
y" + p(x)y' + q(x) = 0
where p(x) = [6(x+1)/x^2] and q(x) = 6/x^2

Now a second linearly ...
