General Solution of the Homogeneous, Linear ODE with Constant


Coefficients

If the root is repeated k time, the solution corresponding to this is

y (c1 c 2 x ... c k x k 1 )e x
If the pair of roots 1,2 = a bi is a complex, conjugate pair, the solution
corresponding to this is

y e ax (c1 cos bx c 2 sin bx )


The general solution of the homogeneous linear ODE with constant coefficients
is the linear combination of the above solutions.
