In this paper, we will consider the Hyers-Ulam stability for the second order inhomogeneous linear differential equation, u ′ ′ ( x ) + α u ′ ( x ) + β u ( x ) = r ( x ) , with constant coefficients. More precisely, we study the properties of the approximate solutions of the above differential equation in the class of twice continuously differentiable functions with suitable conditions and compare them with the solutions of the homogeneous differential equation u ′ ′ ( x ) + α u ′ ( x ) + β u ( x ) = 0 . Several mathematicians have studied the approximate solutions of such differential equation and they obtained good results. In this paper, we use the classical integral method, via the Wronskian, to establish the stability of the second order inhomogeneous linear differential equation with constant coefficients and we will compare our result with previous ones. Specially, for any desired point c ∈ R we can have a good approximate solution near c with very small error estimation.

We consider the second order homogeneous linear differential equation (H) $${ ay'' + by' + cy = 0 }$$ with real coefficients a, b, c, and a ≠ 0. The function y = emx is a solution if, and only if, m satisfies the auxiliary equation am2 + bm + c = 0. When the roots of this are the complex conjugates m = p ± iq, then y = e(p ± iq)x are complex solutions of (H). Nevertheless, real solutions are given by y = c1epx cos qx + c2epx sin qx.
