Louis Alain:
The characteristic equation is given by
r2+4r+4=0
(r+2)2 = 0
r = -2
Two linearly independent solutions are y = c1*e-2x and y = c2*x*e-2x
What is the general solution?

Try y = c1*e-2x + c2*x*e-2x09/24/20

What I mean on general solution is what is the final answer after solving the given equation.09/24/20
