METHOD OF UNDETERMINED COEFFICIENTS. Used for finding yp for DE with “nice” g(x) : xm, sin x, cos x, e(x and sums and products of these functions Steps: Determine the solution of the associated homogeneous equation of the ODE i.e. find the solution yc of . Apply superposition to break the equation up into equations where g(x) is only one of ... ................
