To produce the solutions for y(0) = 1, type:
which gives:
Example 2
Solve:
y” + y = cos(x)
y(0) = 1 y’(0) = 1
It is possible to solve for the constants from the outset.
Typing:
DESOLVE((d1d1Y(X)+Y(X)=COS(X))
AND (Y(0)=1) AND (d1Y(0)=1),Y(X))
gives:
ISOLATE The zeros of an expression
ISOLATE returns the values that are the zeros of an
expression or an equation.
ISOLATE has two parameters: an expression or equation,
and the name of the variable to isolate (ignoring
REALASSUME).
Typing:
ISOLATE(X
4
-1=3,X)
gives in real mode:
(x = 2) OR (x = −√2)
and in complex mode:
(x = 2 · i) OR (x = −√2) OR
(x = (2 · i)) OR (x = 2)
