(A) Given function: $y = x \sin 3x$
Differentiating both sides with respect to $x$ using the product rule:
$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{d}{dx}(x) \cdot \sin 3x + x \cdot \frac{d}{dx}(\sin 3x)$
$\frac{dy}{dx} = 1 \cdot \sin 3x + x \cdot (\cos 3x \cdot 3) = \sin 3x + 3x \cos 3x$
Differentiating again with respect to $x$:
$\frac{d^{2}y}{dx^{2}} = \frac{d}{dx}(\sin 3x) + 3 \cdot \frac{d}{dx}(x \cos 3x)$
$\frac{d^{2}y}{dx^{2}} = 3 \cos 3x + 3 [1 \cdot \cos 3x + x \cdot (-\sin 3x \cdot 3)]$
$\frac{d^{2}y}{dx^{2}} = 3 \cos 3x + 3 \cos 3x - 9x \sin 3x = 6 \cos 3x - 9x \sin 3x$
Now,substitute $\frac{d^{2}y}{dx^{2}}$ and $y$ into the $L.H.S.$ of the differential equation:
$L.H.S. = \frac{d^{2}y}{dx^{2}} + 9y - 6 \cos 3x$
$= (6 \cos 3x - 9x \sin 3x) + 9(x \sin 3x) - 6 \cos 3x$
$= 6 \cos 3x - 6 \cos 3x - 9x \sin 3x + 9x \sin 3x$
$= 0 = R.H.S.$
Since $L.H.S. = R.H.S.$,the given function is a solution of the differential equation.

Water is drained from a vertical cylindrical tank by opening a valve at the base of the tank. It is known that the rate at which the water level drops is proportional to the square root of water depth $y$,where the constant of proportionality $k > 0$ depends on the acceleration due to gravity and the geometry of the hole. If $t$ is measured in minutes and $k = \frac{1}{15}$,then the time required to drain the tank if the water is $4 \text{ m}$ deep to start with is .......... $\text{min}$.
