The general solution to the given differential equation is y(x) = 2.5x^2 + bx + c, where b and c are unknown constant values. To find these unknown values, use the given boundary conditions a) at x= 0 2.5*0^2 + b*0 + c = 100.2, which gives c = 100.2; b) at x= 100.1: 2.5*100.1^2 + b*100.1 + 100.2 = 100.1 which gives 25150.225 + 100.2b = 100.1 100.2b = 100.1 - 25150.225 = -25050.125 b = -25050.125/100.2 = -250.0012475. It gives your solution/answer.
