Question:medium

Let $u, v$ and $w$ be the non-zero solutions of the differential equation
\[ (D^3 - 6D^2 + 11D - 6)y = 0; \quad D = \frac{d}{dx} \] Then the Wronskian of $u, v$ and $w$ is

Show Hint

Shortcut using Abel's Identity: $W(x) = C e^{-\int (-6) dx} = C e^{6x}$. For distinct exponential solutions $e^{\lambda_1 x}, e^{\lambda_2 x}, e^{\lambda_3 x}$, the constant $C = \prod_{i < j} (\lambda_j - \lambda_i) = (2-1)(3-1)(3-2) = 2$.
