The general solution is #y=e^(2x)(acos(3x)+bsin(3x))+8/3e^(2x)+(1/40)sin(3x)+(3/40)cos(3x)#

Explanation:

The general solution to this second order non-homogenous differential equation is

#y=y_h+y_p#

#y_h# is the solution to #y''-4y'+13y=0#

The caracteristic polynomial is

#r^2-4r+13=0#

The solution is

#y=(4+-sqrt(16-4*13))/(2)=2+-3i#

Therefore,

#y_h=e^(2x)(acos(3x)+bsin(3x))#

The particular solution to the equation

#y''-4y'+13y=24e^(2x)#

is of the form #y_(p1)=de^(2x)#

Therefore,

#4de^(2x)-8de^(2x)+13de^(2x)=24e^(2x)#

#9d=24#

#d=24/9=8/3#

Therefore,

#y_(p1)=8/3e^(2x)#

The particular solution to the equation

#y''-4y'+13y=sin(3x)#

is of the form #y_(p2)=fsin(3x)+gcos(3x)#

#y_(p2)'=3fcos(3x)-3gsin(3x)#

#y_(p2)''=-9fsin(3x)-9gcos(3x)#

Therefore,

#-9fsin(3x)-9gcos(3x)-4(3fcos(3x)-3gsin(3x))+13(fsin(3x)+gcos(3x))=sin(3x)#

#{(4f+12g=1),(4g-12f=0):}#

#<=>#, #{(4f+12g=1),(g=3f):}#

#<=>#, #{(f=1/40),(g=3/40):}#

Therefore,

#y_(p2)=(1/40)sin(3x)+(3/40)cos(3x)#

Putting it all together

#y=y_h+y_(p1)+y_(p2)#

#y=e^(2x)(acos(3x)+bsin(3x))+8/3e^(2x)+(1/40)sin(3x)+(3/40)cos(3x)#
