I'm trying to find y as a function of x in an equation. Here's the outline of my method: Suppose I have the following ode: ode := x^2*(diff(y(t), t, t))-3*x*(diff(y(t), t))+2*y = x^2 IC := y(0) = 7, (D(y))(1) = 2 dsolve({ode, IC}, y(t)) But I get the following: Error, (in ODEtools/info) y(t) and y cannot both appear in the given ODE. I'm not sure about what I'm doing wrong here in the syntax? Any hint would be appreciated. Thanks.

I'm trying to use dsolve on the following equation, but it gives me the following: "Error, (in tools/map) too many levels of recursion" - deq := (diff(y(t), t, t))+2*(diff(y(t), t))+26*y(t) = 6*exp^(3*t) dsolve(deq, y(t)) I'm usually better with Matlab but Maple is driving me nutttts! Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi - I'm new to Maple. I can't seem to solve an ode with Maple because it gives me this error: Error, (in combine/exp) too many levels of recursion Lets say I have the following equation: > diffEq := (diff(y(x), x, x))-7*(diff(y(x), x)) = 7*exp^(3*t); I try the following and include the ICs: > with(DEtools) > dsolve({diffEq, y(0) = 1, y'(0) = 3}, y(x)); I wanted to know why this doesn't work? Correct syntax would be great. Thanks.
