Problem Statement
Use the Basic Rule and the Sum Rule to show that the appropriate particular solution to 
 (4.1)
      (4.1)
 
is of the form 
 
 
 
 
with n=5, i.e, 
  .
.
Solution
The Basic rule and Sum rule allow us to choose our particular y forms from table 2.1 on page 82 in the Kreyszig Advanced Engineering Mathematics book. These rules state that, using your given  , you can find what
 , you can find what  you should choose to use.
 you should choose to use. 
From (4.1), we know that: 
 (4.2)
      (4.2)
Referring to table 2.1, and knowing that the Basic rule tells us that we can match up the form of our  to one in the table, and use the
 to one in the table, and use the  accordingly, we find the following two equations:
 accordingly, we find the following two equations: 
The  for
  for  is:
 is: 
 (4.3)
      (4.3)
And the  for
 for  is:
 is: 
 (4.4)
      (4.4)
The sum rule tells us that we are able to add these equations, (4.3) and (4.4), to obtain a final solution for  . The solution for this is as follows:
. The solution for this is as follows: 
 
 
Adding similar variables gives us: 
 (4.5)
     (4.5)
Since these k and K values are just constants, we can set: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Our FINAL solution for the  of (4.1) is:
 of (4.1) is: 
 (4.6)
     (4.6)
And, as was the original problem statement, equation (4.6) is of the form:
