x(t) = 2
so would a particular solution be y(t)=0.4 ?
Oooooh boy it's been a while since my DiffEq days. I think it would be because, if y(t) is the constant .4, its derivative is 0, so the first term would be 5*0, the second term would be 10*.4, and the sum would be 2*2, for 0+4=4.
I think that's how maths work, but someone feel free to correct me otherwise. I'm not sure if you can just do it like that.

Don't worry, my friend. If this be the end, then so shall it be.
