Solution

(a) The system is linear. This is because all the terms are either constants, the function itself, or its derivatives, each raised to the first power. There are no terms that are products of the function or its derivatives, which would make the system nonlinear.

(b) The system is nonhomogeneous. This is because there are terms on the right-hand side of the equations that are not zero. If the right-hand side of both equations were zero, the system would be homogeneous.

(c) To convert the system into an equivalent system of first order equations, we can introduce new variables for the first derivatives of x and y. Let's denote u = dx/dt and v = dy/dt. Then, the system of equations becomes:

du/dt = -v + 2u + 4 dv/dt = -5v + 2x - u + 11sin(t)

This can be written in matrix form as:

x'(t) = Ax(t) + b(t)

where x'(t) = [du/dt, dv/dt], x(t) = [u, v], A = [[2, -1], [2, -5]], and b(t) = [4, 11sin(t)].
