Get started for freedraw a direction field for the given differential equation. Based on the direction field, determine the behavior of \(y\) as \(t \rightarrow \infty\). If this behavior depends on the initial value of \(y\) at \(t=0,\) describe this dependency. Note the right sides of these equations depend on \(t\) as well as \(y\), therefore their solutions can exhibit more complicated behavior than those in the text. $$ y^{\prime}=-2+t-y $$

If this behavior depends on the initial value of \(y\) at \(t=0,\) describe this dependency. Note the right sides of these equations depend on \(t\) as well as \(y\), therefore their solutions can exhibit more complicated behavior than those in the text. $$ y^{\prime}=y^{3} / 6-y-t^{2} / 3 $$
Verify that the given function or functions is a solution of the differential equation. $$ y^{\prime \prime}+2 y^{\prime}-3 y=0 ; \quad y_{1}(t)=e^{-3 t}, \quad y_{2}(t)=e^{t} $$
