First Order Constant Coefficient Linear ODE's

« Previous | Next »

Session Overview

In this session we focus on constant coefficient equations. That is, the equation y' + ky = f(t), where k is a constant. Since we already know how to solve the general first order linear DE this will be a special case. Studying it will pave the way for studying higher order constant coefficient equations in later sessions.
