For the non-homogeneous equation y'' + 6y' + 9y = 3e^{-3x}, find the PI using the method of undetermined coefficients.
💡 Hint: Identify if your guessed function overlaps with the complementary function.
Solve the system described by y' = 3x + 4y + sin(t), y = -4x + 3y + e^t using variation of parameters.
💡 Hint: Look for linearly independent solutions.
