This is a question about Ordinary Differential Equations. For solving linear differential equations, I have seen people use the method of integrating factors and the method of variation of parameters. Is it true that either of these 2 methods can be used to solve any linear differential equation? If so, could you show me an example where a linear differential equation is solved using both of these methods. If not, could you explain using examples as to why this is...
