Defining the model

All differential equation models begin with a differential equation. If the problem is an intial value problem, an initial condition is also needed. Replace the question marks ( %? ) in the following input regions to define the relevant ODE model.

> MODEL := diff( y(t) , t ) = -2*y(t) ; # define the differential equation model

[Maple Math]

> IC := y(0) = -1 ; # specify an initial condition

[Maple Math]

> VAR := { y(t) }; # specify the variables in the model
