Using Maple "dsolve" on problem 3.5: 22 (Assignment #10)

First we enter the second-order differential equation:

>	DE := (D@@2)(y)(t) - 3*D(y)(t) + 2*y(t) = 8*t^2 + 12*exp(-t);

>	VARS := y(t):

Here comes "dsolve" cookling up the general solution:

>	dsolve(DE,VARS);

Now we loose Maple to handle the whole initial-value problem.

The initial conditions:

>	IC := y(0) = 0, D(y)(0) = 2;

The initial-value problem prepared for "dsolve":

>	IVP := {DE,IC}:

Stand back!

>	dsolve(IVP, VARS);
