3. Two ordinary differential equations in terms of unknown functions u(x) and v(x) are given below.
u′(x)−4u(x) = 2v(x)+2(ex+e−x)
v′(x)+3v(x) = −5u(x)

a. Show that the given first order ordinary differential equations above can be expressed as a second order ordinary differential equation as shown below: (show complete solution)

u′′(x)−u′(x)−2u(x) = 8ex+4e−x
