Answer: \(x=e^{5t}+2e^{-2t}+0.3\cos t-0.1\sin t\).
We solve the homogeneous equation first:
\(\dfrac{\mathrm{d}^2 x}{\mathrm{d}t^2}-3\dfrac{\mathrm{d}x}{\mathrm{d}t}-10x=0\).
Trying \(x=e^{mt}\) gives the auxiliary equation
\(m^2-3m-10=0\), so \((m-5)(m+2)=0\).
Hence the complementary function is
\(x=Ae^{5t}+Be^{-2t}\).
For a particular solution, because the forcing term is \(2\sin t-3\cos t\), let
\(x_p=p\sin t+q\cos t\).
Then
\(\dfrac{\mathrm{d}x_p}{\mathrm{d}t}=p\cos t-q\sin t\),
\(\dfrac{\mathrm{d}^2x_p}{\mathrm{d}t^2}=-p\sin t-q\cos t\).
Substitute into the differential equation:
\(-p\sin t-q\cos t-3(p\cos t-q\sin t)-10(p\sin t+q\cos t)=2\sin t-3\cos t\).
Collecting coefficients of \(\sin t\) and \(\cos t\),
\((-11p+3q)\sin t+(-3p-11q)\cos t=2\sin t-3\cos t\).
So
\(-11p+3q=2\), \(3p+11q=3\).
Solving these gives \(p=-0.1\) and \(q=0.3\).
Therefore
\(x=Ae^{5t}+Be^{-2t}+0.3\cos t-0.1\sin t\).
Now use the initial conditions. When \(t=0\), \(x=3.3\), so
\(A+B+0.3=3.3\), hence \(A+B=3\).
Differentiate:
\(\dfrac{\mathrm{d}x}{\mathrm{d}t}=5Ae^{5t}-2Be^{-2t}-0.3\sin t-0.1\cos t\).
When \(t=0\), \(\dfrac{\mathrm{d}x}{\mathrm{d}t}=0.9\), so
\(5A-2B-0.1=0.9\), hence \(5A-2B=1\).
Solve
\(A+B=3\), \(5A-2B=1\).
From \(B=3-A\),
\(5A-2(3-A)=1 \Rightarrow 7A=7 \Rightarrow A=1\), and then \(B=2\).
So the required solution is
\(x=e^{5t}+2e^{-2t}+0.3\cos t-0.1\sin t\).
