has a theorem been discovered that describes what the form of a non-homogeneous equation should look like for it to be solvable by undetermined coefficients?

(by g(x) i mean the non-homogeneous term)

for the bonus, the method of undetermined coefficients does not apply here, because when we assume y is of the form g(x), deriving twice and substituting into the equation yields terms with powers of t such that it is impossible to find a coefficient where the solution is of the form you assumed. this can be easily verified

there needs to be a correction in my solution: I said r = 2i when its other part of the conjugate pair, -2i, was not mentioned. and I should have subbed the r's with a 1,2, and 3 respectively for good notation

Here is the solution. I apologize for the picture instead of code, but time was of the essence
