The principle of superposition is a useful technique in developing solutions to differential equations after an initial solution is derived. In developing such solutions it is often convenient to consider separately the response of a system to initial conditions with all forcing function inputs equal to zero, and, secondly, the response to the forcing function with all initial conditions equal to zero. Consider the following differential equation: dy/dt + ay= bus(t)

with y(c)=0

a. Determine the solution y_i(t) to the equation for nonzero, finite values of a and c, and for b = 0.
b. Determine the solution y_u(t) of the equation for nonzero, finite values of a and b, and for c = 0.

An airplane consumes fuel at a constant rate while flying through clear skies, and it consumes fuel at a rate of 64 gallons per minute while flying through rain clouds. let c represent the number of minutes the plane can fly through clear skies and r represent the number of minutes the plane can fly through rain clouds without consuming all of its fuel. 56c+64r < 900056c+64r< 9000 according to the inequality, at what rate does the airplane consume fuel while flying through clear skies, and how much fuel does it have before takeoff? the airplane consumes fuel at a rate of gallons per minute while flying through clear skies, and it has gallons of fuel before takeoff. does the airplane have enough fuel to fly for 60 minutes through clear skies and 90 minutes through rain clouds?

How can you tell when x and y are not directly proportional?
