Re: Second Order Differential Equations

I am exploring a problem on exponential oil use and am >having trouble
solving a second order differential equation. I am >trying to find an
expression for f(t) in terms of t by solving f"(t)>=.05f'(t). I am
using a made-up initial condition that f'(0)=10 billion >barrels of
oil. Can anyone give me some insight?

I do have that d^2y/dx^2=.05 dy/dx obviously, =]

Thanks guys!

f(t) = 200*e^(0.05*t) + (f(0)-200)

Best wishes
