Statement

Suppose f:R→Rf : \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} is a two times differentiable function satisfying f(0)=1f(0) = 1, f′(0)=0f'(0) = 0, and for all x∈[0,∞)x \in [0,\infty),

f′′(x)−5f′(x)+6f(x)≥0.f''(x) - 5f'(x) + 6f(x) \ge 0.

Prove that for all x∈[0,∞)x \in [0,\infty),

f(x)≥3e2x−2e3x.f(x) \ge 3e^{2x} - 2e^{3x}.
