First Order Non-homogeneous Differential Equation
hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu › hbase › MathBy substitution you can verify that setting the function equal to the constant value -c/b will satisfy the non-homogeneous equation. It is the nature of differential equations that the sum of solutions is also a solution, so that a general solution can be approached by taking the sum of the two solutions above. The final requirement for the application of the solution to a physical problem is that the solution fits the physical boundary conditions of the problem. The most common situation in ...
