Question: Consider the differential operator L = ( ( x ^ 2 9 ) x ) d / dx + ( 1 / 4 ( 1

Consider the differential operator
L=((x^29)x)d/dx+(1/4(1+x^2)^2)
d^2/dx^2
acting on functions defined on the interval[1,1].
Find the function (x) such that L:=L is in Sturm-Liouville form:
L=d/dx(p(x)d/dx)
i.e. find the necessary integrating factor
