yλy=0
y=Ceat
y=Caeat
Plugging the values of y and y'
CaeatλCeat=0
Ceat(aλ)=0
eat!=0,C!=0
(aλ)=0
a=λ
y=Ceλt
Lets find the particular solution
Let y=b+ct
y=c
Plugging in equation yλy=1λt
cλ(b+ct)=1λt
cλbλct=1λt
cλb=1, λc=λ
Solving the second equation
λc=λ
λc+λ=0
λ(c+1)=0
c+1=0
c=1
Plugging in 1-st equation
1λb=1
λb=0
b=0
The solution to the DE is
y=Ceλt+t
Using the initial condition: y(0)=0
y(0)=Ceλ0+0=0
C×1=0
C=0
The final solution y=0eλt+t
y=t
