Find two basic solutions to the following system of homogeneous equations. left{egin{array}{r} x-y-2 z-w=0 \ 4 x+2 y+z-w=0 end{array} ight. Remark. Basic solutions can be obtained from a general solution of the form left[egin{array}{c} x \ y \ z \ w end{array} ight]=left[egin{array}{l} * s+* t \ * s+* t \ * s+* t \ * s+* t end{array} ight]=sleft[egin{array}{c} * \ * \ * \ * end{array} ight]+tleft[egin{array}{l} * \ * \ * \ * end{array} ight] by setting s = 1, t = 0 and s = 0, t = 1; see also Examples 1.38 and 1.39 of our text book.

Given y1(t) = t^2 and y2(t) = t^(-1) satisfy the corresponding homogeneous equation of t^2y'' - 2y = 2t^3 + 3, t > 0 Then the general solution to the non-homogeneous equation can be written as y(t) = c1y1(t) + c2y2(t) + Y(t). Use variation of parameters to find Y(t). Y(t)
