8. (a) Find the general solution of the differential equation
$$\frac { \mathrm { d } ^ { 2 } y } { \mathrm {~d} t ^ { 2 } } + 2 \frac { \mathrm {~d} y } { \mathrm {~d} t } + 2 y = 2 \mathrm { e } ^ { - t }$$
(b) Find the particular solution that satisfies \(y = 1\) and \(\frac { \mathrm { d } y } { \mathrm {~d} t } = 1\) at \(t = 0\).
