Transcript text: Show that the functions $x(t)=e^{-t / 10} \sin t$ and $y(t)=\frac{1}{10} e^{-t / 10}(-10 \cos t+\sin t)$ are solutions of the initial value problem
\[
\begin{array}{l}
\frac{d x}{d t}=-y \\
\frac{d y}{d t}=(1.01) x-(0.2) y ; x(0)=0, y(0)=-1
\end{array}
\]
Solution
Solution Steps
To show that the given functions \( x(t) = e^{-t / 10} \sin t \) and \( y(t) = \frac{1}{10} e^{-t / 10}(-10 \cos t + \sin t) \) are solutions to the initial value problem, we need to:
Compute the derivatives \( \frac{dx}{dt} \) and \( \frac{dy}{dt} \).
Substitute \( x(t) \) and \( y(t) \) into the differential equations to verify that they satisfy both equations.
Check the initial conditions \( x(0) = 0 \) and \( y(0) = -1 \).
