To find the number of arbitrary constants in the general solution of a fourth-order differential equation, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Order of the Differential Equation A differential equation's order is determined by the highest derivative present in the equation. In this case, we are dealing with a fourth-order differential equation. ### Step 2: Identify the General Form of a Fourth-Order Differential Equation A general fourth-order differential equation can be expressed in the form: \[ ...
