I am to use the steps in the attached method to solve the differential equation:

y'+(1/t)y=3 cos 2t, where t>0.

### Variation of Parameters

Consider the following method of solving the general linear equation of first order:

\[ y' + p(t)y = g(t) \tag{1} \]

#### (a)
If \( g(t) = 0 \) for all \( t \), show that the solution is 

\[ y = A \exp \left[ - \int p(t) dt \right], \]

where \( A \) is a constant.

#### (b)
If \( g(t) \) is not everywhere zero, assume that the solution of Eq. (1) is of the form

\[ y = \Lambda(t) \exp \left[ - \int p(t) dt \right], \]

where \( \Lambda \) is a function of \( t \).

By substituting for \( y \) in the given differential equation, show that \( \Lambda(t) \) must satisfy the condition

\[ \Lambda'(t) = g(t) \exp \left[ \int p(t) dt \right]. \tag{4} \]

#### (c)
Find \( \Lambda(t) \) from Eq. (4). Then substitute for \( \Lambda(t) \) in Eq. (3) and determine \( y \). Verify that the solution obtained in this manner agrees with that of Eq. (33) in the text. Eq. (33) in the text is

\[ y = \frac{1}{\mu(t)} \left[ \int_{t_0}^t \mu(s)g(s) ds + c \right]. \]
