### Verify the Fundamental Set of Solutions

#### Differential Equation

Consider the differential equation:

\[ x^2 y'' - 7xy' + 12y = 0; \quad x^2, x^6, \quad (0, \infty). \]

Verify that the given functions form a fundamental set of solutions of the differential equation on the indicated interval.

#### Linearly Independent Solutions

The functions satisfy the differential equation and are linearly independent since:

\[ W(x^2, x^6) = \]

\[ \neq 0 \quad \text{for} \quad 0 < x < \infty. \]

#### General Solution

Form the general solution:

\[ y = \]

\( y = C_1 x^2 + C_2 x^6 \)
