Expert Solution
Step 1

The differential equation given here is

x2y''+xy'+λx=0

y''+y'x+λx3=0

compare it with equation

y''+y'px+qxy=0

P'xPx=px Px =cepxdx

Px =c e1xdx =cx

let c= 1 and λw-Q =Pxqx

 λw-Q=cxλ/x3

So Q = 0 and w =1/x2

So, Sturm - Liouville form is given as

-xpxyx+qyy=wλy

plugging the values,

-xcxyx+λx3y=1x2λy

steps
