Q: Find the general solution of the given differential equation.
$$
y^{\prime\prime}-2y^{\prime}-2y=0
$$
A: We assume that $y=e^rt$, and it follows that $r$ must be a root of the characteristic equation
$$r^2 - 2r -2 = 0$$
Then $r= \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}=\frac{-(-2)\pm\sqrt{(-2)^2-4\times2}}{2\times1}= 1\pm\sqrt{3}$
Then we find that $r_1 = 1+\sqrt{3}$ and $r_2 = 1-\sqrt{3}$ 

Since the general solution has the form of$$y = c_1e^{r_1t}+c_2e^{r_2t}$$
Therefore, the general solution of the given differential equation is $$y = c_1e^{(1+\sqrt{3})t}+c_2e^{(1-\sqrt{3})t}$$

$$( \frac { \operatorname { sin } ( y ) } { y } - 2 e ^ { - x } \operatorname { sin } ( x ) ) + ( \frac { \operatorname { cos } ( y ) + 2 e ^ { - x } \operatorname { cos } ( x ) } { y } ) y ^ { \prime } = 0 , \quad \mu ( x , y ) = y e ^ { x };$$


mutiply both sides by $\mu$:

Then $( \operatorname { sin } ( y ) e ^ { x } - 2 y \operatorname { sin } ( x ) ) + ( \operatorname { cos } ( y ) e ^ { x } + 2 \operatorname { cos } ( x ) ) y ^ { \prime } = 0$

Let $M(x,y)=\sin(y)e^x-2y\sin(x)$ and $N(x,y)=\cos(y)e^x+2\cos(x)$

Then $M_y=\cos(y)e^x-2\sin(x)$ $\quad N_x=\cos(y)e^x-\sin(x)$

Then the equation is exact.

Therefore, there exists a function $\varphi(x,y)$ such that
$$\left. \begin{array} { l } { \varphi _ { x } ( x , y ) = \operatorname { sin } ( y ) e ^ { x } - 2 y \operatorname { sin } ( x ) = M } \\ { \varphi _ { y } ( x , y ) = \operatorname { cos } ( y ) e ^ { x } + 2 \operatorname { cos } ( x ) = N } \end{array} \right.$$


Then $$\left. \begin{array} { l } { \varphi ( x , y ) = \int N d y = \operatorname { sin } ( y ) e ^ { x } + h ( x ) } \\ { \varphi _ { x } ( x , y ) = \operatorname { sin } ( y ) e ^ { x } + h ^ { \prime } ( x ) } \end{array} \right.$$

Then $$\left. \begin{array}{l}{ h ^ { \prime } ( x ) = - 2 y \operatorname { sin } ( x ) }\\{ h ( x ) = \int - 2 y \operatorname { sin } ( x ) }\\{ \quad\,\quad= 2 y \operatorname { cos } ( x ) + c }\end{array} \right.$$


Therefore $\sin(y)e^x+2y\cos(x)=c$
