a'[t] + b'[t]== -p1 a[t] - p2 b[t]

where {a[0]== a0, b[0]== b0}

is this solvable in Mathematica? If so, how will I go about doing so?

let's assume a[0]== a0, and b[0]==b0

if symbolic solution isn't possible, then intial conditions of
a[0]== 1, and b[0]==0.5 couild be used...(or any other numbers for that
matter)

thanks in advance.
