Let y=yt be a solution of the differential equation dydt+αy=γe-βt Where, α>0,β>0 and γ>0. Then Limt yt
  1. is 0
  2. does not exist
  3. is 1
  4. is -1

Solution

Given,

dydt+αy=γ·e-βt

Which is a linear differential equation,

So, integrating factor will be I.F=eαdt=eαt

So, the solution of differential equation is given by

y×eαt=γe-βt×eαt

y×eαt=γeα-βt

y×eαt=γeα-βtα-β+c

y=γe-βtα-β+ce-αt

Now finding limty we get,

limty=limtγe-βtα-β+ce-αt

limty=γ×0+c×0=0 as e-0
