Question 1184638: For this problem you may want to recall that if y=sinh(x), then dy/dx=cosh(x), and d^(2)y/dx^(2)=sinh(x).
It can be shown that y1=sinh(3x), y2=cosh(3x) and y3=e^(3x) are solutions to the differential equation xD^(3)y−8D^(2)y−9xDy+72y=0 on (0,∞).
a)
What does the Wronskian of y1,y2,y3 equal on (0,∞)?
W(y1,y2,y3)=______________________ on (0,∞).
b)
Is {y1,y2,y3} a fundamental set for xD^(3)y−8D^(2)y−9xDy+72y=0 on (0,∞)?
Yes or No
