Instructions:
• Answer each question to the best of your ability. Show your work or receive no credit.
• All answers must be written clearly. Be sure to erase or cross out any work that you do not want
graded. Partial credit can not be awarded unless there is legible work to assess.
• If you require extra space for any answer, you may use the back sides of the exam pages. Please
indicate when you have done this so that I do not miss any of your work.

2. (5 points) A mass of 1 slug, when attached to a spring, stretches it 32/9 feet and then it comes to rest
in the equilibrium position. Starting at t = 0, an external force equal to f(t) = sin(3t) is applied to the
system. There is no damping on the system.
(a) Set up the IVP governing this spring-mass system.
(b) Using variation of parameters, find the corresponding equation of motion.
(c) Explain why or why not the mass will ever come back to rest.

3. (5 points) Consider the following linear homogeneous di↵erential equation:
a(x)y00 + b(x)y0 + c(x)y = 0.
(a) If y1, y2 form a fundamental set of solutions, then what can we say about the value of their Wronskian
W (y1, y2)?
(b) If f and g are solutions, show by direct computation that f + g is also a solution.
(c) True or False: if Y1, Y2, Y3 are three solutions, then we may write one of them as a linear combination
of the remaining two. Justify by using the definition of linear dependence and the theory of linear
di↵erential equations.

4. (5 points) Consider the following 100 gallon tanks containing brine. As done in class, construct a system
of di↵erential equations which model the salt contents xA(t), xB(t), and xC(t) of tanks A,B, and C,
respectively, given the indicated information.
What values should xA(t), xB(t), and xC(t) respectively approach as t ! 1?
