For each ODE below, find the general solution (a)

Consider the system of ODE’s:  

 Find the general solution to the ODE:  

 Suppose that the mass in a mass-spring-dashpot system with m =1, c = 5,  and k=4 is set in motion (at t=0) with x(0) = 3 and . When x(t) >0 the spring is stretched, and the spring is compressed when x(t)
