Consider the equation xy′′+y′+y= 0, x >0.
a) Verify that 0 is a regular singular point.
(b) Find the indicial equation and its roots.
c) Determine the recurrence relation(you do NOT need to find the
solutions).
5. Consider the differential equation
xy^5/2 +1+x^2y^3/2dy/dx =0
(a) Show that this differential equation is not exact.
(b) Find a value for the constant a such that, when you multiply
the d.e. through by xa, it becomes exact. Show your working. Do NOT
solve the resulting differential equation.
