A linear second-order non-homogeneous equation models this scenario: People falling at a height of 100ft above the ground attached to a 100-foot rope into a pit that's 25 ft deep and 75 feet from ground level. Spring constant of the rope is 120 lbs/ft, and air resistance is 5 times the instantaneous velocity. M is mass of person and g is gravity. Note that the pit is actually 100 ft in height: 75 from ground level plus 25 ft deep. Write this scenario as an initial value problem in matrix form. The equation is my''+5y'+120y=mg ### Differential Equation and Graphical Representation#### Differential Equation:The image displays a second-order linear differential equation:\[ my'' + 5y' + 12y = mg \]- \( y'' \) represents the second derivative of \( y \) with respect to time.- \( y' \) represents the first derivative of \( y \) with respect to time.This equation can be used to describe systems undergoing simple harmonic motion, where \( m \) is the mass and \( g \) is the acceleration due to gravity.#### Graphical Explanation:Next to the equation, there is a sketch with the label \( y(0) = \). It indicates the initial condition of the system.A simple line is drawn horizontally with numbers:- A line at height 100 with a horizontal line extending from it.- A line at height 75 with a bracket extending upwards.- A line at height 25 with a bracket extending upwards.These lines possibly represent values related to initial conditions or constraints used in solving or analyzing the equation above. Without further context, these could be related to displacement or forces in the context of mechanical systems.This setup looks like it will be used as part of an educational discussion on differential equations in mechanical systems.

The objective of the question is to represent the given scenario as an initial value problem in…
