Visualizing the Solution of Two Linear Differential Equations

The analytical solutions of the two differential equations and , subject to the initial conditions and are used to create two plots, a parametric plot of a curve with horizontal coordinate and vertical coordinate and a standard plot of and as functions of from 0 to .

The initial conditions and are set by locators on the parametric plot; you can use more than one. A locator's horizontal and vertical coordinates give and , respectively. After changing from the parametric plot to the standard plot, locators appear on the standard plot if and is in the plot range.
