The following simultaneous equations are to be solved. $$\frac{\mathrm{d}x}{\mathrm{d}t} = 4x + 2y + 6e^{3t}$$ $$\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}t} = 6x + 8y + 15e^{3t}$$
  1. Show that \(\frac{\mathrm{d}^2 x}{\mathrm{d}t^2} - 12\frac{\mathrm{d}x}{\mathrm{d}t} + 20x = 0\). [5]
  2. Given that \(\frac{\mathrm{d}x}{\mathrm{d}t} = 9\) and \(\frac{\mathrm{d}^2 x}{\mathrm{d}t^2} = 10\) when \(t = 0\), find the particular solution for \(x\) in terms of \(t\). [7]
