### Topic: Nonhomogeneous Differential Equations

#### Problem 2

Consider the nonhomogeneous equation:

\[ \frac{dy}{dt} = a(t)y + b(t) \]

and its associated homogeneous equation:

\[ \frac{dy}{dt} = a(t)y \]

(a) **Problem Statement:**
Prove that if \( y_h(t) \) is a solution of the homogeneous equation (3) and \( y_p(t) \) is a particular solution of the nonhomogeneous equation (2), then \( y_h(t) + y_p(t) \) is also a solution of the nonhomogeneous equation (2).

(b) **Problem Statement:**
Prove that if \( y_{p_1}(t) \) and \( y_{p_2}(t) \) are two particular solutions of the nonhomogeneous equation (2), then \( y_{p_1}(t) - y_{p_2}(t) \) is a solution of the homogeneous equation (3).
