| I am guessing that some variable was set to some value after your first DSolve and before your second.
With a brand new fresh open notebook I try your example and get
In[1]:= DSolve[{y''[t]+4 y'[t]+4 y[t]==Sin[t],y[0]==0},y[t],t]
Out[1]= {{y[t] -> -(-4 - 25*t*C[2] + 4*E^(2*t)*Cos[t] - 3*E^(2*t)*Sin[t])/(25*E^(2*t))}}
In[2]:= Simplify[%]
Out[2]= {{y[t] -> (4/E^(2*t) + (25*t*C[2])/E^(2*t) - 4*Cos[t] + 3*Sin[t])/25}}
And then try your initial conditions and get
In[3]:= DSolve[{y''[t]+4 y'[t]+4 y[t]==Sin[t],y[0]==1,y'[0]==0},y[t],t]
Out[3]= {{y[t] -> -(-29 - 55*t + 4*E^(2*t)*Cos[t] - 3*E^(2*t)*Sin[t])/(25*E^(2*t))}}
In[4]:= Simplify[%]
Out[4]= {{y[t] -> (29/E^(2*t) + (55*t)/E^(2*t) - 4*Cos[t] + 3*Sin[t])/25}}
Try a fresh start and see if you can reproduce this. |
