I just need someone to verify that my work is correct.

Note that the general solution to $y'' - y = 0$ is $y_h = C_1e^t + C_2e^{-t}$

In the following, use the Method of Undetermined Coefficients to find a particular solution.
b) $y'' - y = 4sint + 2cost$

Solution:
$y_p = -cost - 2sint$
c)$y'' - y = e^t$

Solution:
$y_p = \frac{1}{2} te^t$

d) Give a particular solution to $y'' - y = t^2 + 4sint + 2cost + e^t$

Solution:
$ y_p = -t^2-2 -cost - 2sint + \frac{1}{2}te^t$

Yes, that's correct. (Yes)
 
There is the following linear Volterra equation of the second kind $$ y(x)+\int_{0}^{x} K(x-s) y(s)\,{\rm d}s = 1 $$ with kernel $$ K(x-s) = 1 - 4 \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \dfrac{1}{\lambda_n^2} e^{-\beta \lambda_n^2 (x-s)} $$ where $y(0)=1$, $\beta>0$ and $\lambda_n$ is the $n$-th positive root of the equation $J_0(x)=0$ (here $n$ is a natural number that numbers these positive roots in the order of increasing their values), $J_0(x)$ is the Bessel function of the first kind of zero order.
