(To the tune of "What Child Is This?")
What function's this? When added to
c times its derivative gives me
An f(t), oh how can we
Solve this first order DE?
Sometimes we can separate
Then take both sides and integrate
'Else, we can find I(t)
Then multiply and it's easy
Sometimes, and this is what we hate
The last two things won't be working
But with constants c, it's still easy
We can solve this without hurting
First we find yh(t)
Which will solve it homogeneously
Then a particular integral
Gives us the full solution.

Hoping I pass DEs this term
