Practice 6 (Solution) : 1. Let - Then and

The document provides the solution to solving a differential equation to find a polynomial expression for y in terms of x. It is shown that y can be expressed as the sum of terms with coefficients cn and powers of xn, where the coefficients cn satisfy certain recurrence relations involving n. This allows y to be fully determined as a polynomial in x.
