### Solving Differential Equations Using the Method of Undetermined Coefficients

**Objective:** Solve the given differential equation (D.E.) by the method of undetermined coefficients. 

**Task:** Find \( y \) where \( y = y_c + y_p \)

The differential equation to solve is:

\[ y'' - 7y' + 12y = 5e^{2x} \]

#### Explanation:
1. **\( y_c \)** is the complementary solution, which solves the homogeneous equation \( y'' - 7y' + 12y = 0 \).
2. **\( y_p \)** is the particular solution, which solves the non-homogeneous equation given above \( y'' - 7y' + 12y = 5e^{2x} \).

### Steps to Solve:

#### 1. Finding the Complementary Solution \( y_c \):

   - Solve the characteristic equation for the homogeneous part:
     \[ r^2 - 7r + 12 = 0 \]

   - Determine the roots of the characteristic equation.

#### 2. Finding the Particular Solution \( y_p \):

   - Since the non-homogeneous term is \( 5e^{2x} \), guess a particular solution of the form \( y_p = Ae^{2x} \).
   - Substitute \( y_p \) into the non-homogeneous differential equation to solve for \( A \).

#### 3. Combine the results to obtain the general solution:

   \[ y = y_c + y_p \]

This method is particularly useful for linear differential equations with constant coefficients where the non-homogeneous term is of a specific type (e.g., exponential functions, polynomials, or sine/cosine functions).

Keep practicing different types of non-homogeneous terms to improve your skills in solving differential equations using the method of undetermined coefficients.
