, Preface
This is a solutions manual to accompany the textbook DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS AND
BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEMS: Computing and Modeling (6th edition, 2023) by C. Henry
Edwards, David E. Penney, and David T. Calvis. We include solutions to most of the odd problems
in the text. The corresponding Student Solutions Manual contains solutions to most of the odd-numbered
solutions in the text.
Our goal is to support teaching of the subject of elementary differential equations in every way that we can.
We therefore invite comments and suggested improvements for future printings of this manual, as well as
advice regarding features that might be added to increase its usefulness in subsequent editions. Additional
supplementary material can be found at our textbook web site listed below.
