Math Problem Statement
Solution
The complete solution (or complete integral) of linear differential equations involves the complementary function + particular integral, which corresponds to the second option:
Complementary function + particular integral.
This is because:
- The complementary function is the solution of the homogeneous differential equation (when the right-hand side equals zero).
- The particular integral is the specific solution for the non-homogeneous part of the equation (when the right-hand side is non-zero).
