Answer all questions.
1. Determine whether any of the functions

is a solution to the initial-value problem
4 0; (0) 0, (0) 1y y y y .
(8 marks)
.2sin4,2cos2 11 xyxy Hence, )(1 xy is a solution to the differential equation.
Also, it satisfies the first initial condition, 0)0(1 y . However, )(1 xy does not satisfy
the second condition since 10)0(1 y . This means that )(1 xy is not a solution to the
initial value problem.
[3 marks]
.0,1 22 yy )(2 xy satisfy both the initial conditions but is not a solution to the
differential equation, hence, )(2 xy is not a solution to the initial value problem.
[2 marks]
.2sin2,2cos 33 xyxy upon substitution into the differential equation we have
02sin2

xx , which shows that )(3 xy satisfy the differential equation.
Also, 0)0sin(2
1)0(3 y and 1)0(2cos)0(3 y , shows )(3 xy satisfy both initial
conditions. This means that )(3 xy is a solution to the initial value problem.
