21. Show that the solution of the initial value problem

′′ ′ ′ ′
L[y] = y + p(t)y + q(t)y = g(t), y(t0 ) = y 0 , y (t0 ) = y (i)

can be written as y = u(t) + v(t) , where u and v are solutions of the two
initial value problems

L[v] = g(t), v(t0 ) = 0, v (t0 ) = 0, (iii)

respectively. In other words, the nonhomogeneities in the differential

equation and in the initial conditions can be dealt with separately. Observe
that u is easy to find if a fundamental set of solutions of L[u] = 0 is known.
