2. Show that for any nonzero number k and any numbers a and b, there is at most one function f(x) defined for all real numbers and satisfying the conditions:
(a) f''(x) = -k^2 f(x) for all x
(b) f(0) =a, f'(0)=b
(Hint: If there are two such functions f(x) and g(x), consider u(x) = f(x/k) - g(x/k) and v(x) = u'(x), and show that u(x)=0, v(x)=0).
Guess the unique function that satisfies the conditions.
