with continuous coefficients p0 (x), . . . , pn 1 (x) on an open interval I. Prove that their Wronskian W =
W (y1 , . . . , yn ) satisfies W 0 = pn 1 W . Conclude that if the Wronskian is zero for some x = x0 in I, then
W is identically zero on I.

and show the linear independence. We will denote by L [y] = y 0 y for a constant .
(a) Show that if y = p(x) · e x for some polynomial p(x) of degree d, then L [y] = q(x) · e x
for some
polynomial q(x) of degree d 1. In particular, L [y] = 0 if p(x) is a constant.

(b) Show that if y = p(x) · e x for some polynomial p(x) of degree d and 6= , then L 0 [y] = q(x) · e x
y10 = y1 + y2 ,
y20 = y2 ,
y30 = y1 + 2y3 .
