Consider the following statements about particular integrals. 1. A factor of \( x \) is needed when the forcing term solves the homogeneous equation   2. The operator method handles \( \ln x \) directly   3. Variation of parameters needs the complementary function first

  • A.1 and 2 only are correct
  • B.2 and 3 only are correct
  • C.1, 2 and 3 are all correct
  • D.1 and 3 only are correct

Answer: D

The resonant case does need the extra factor, and variation of parameters does build the particular integral from the complementary solutions, so it cannot be attempted first. A logarithm is outside the operator method's repertoire, which covers exponentials, sinusoids, polynomials and their products
