I am not sure how to do number 6 on p. 494.  I'm clueless, and there's no answer in the back to verify if I'm doing anything right.  Any tips?

The method of undetermined coefficients for second order nonhomogeneous linear ODEs works well for this problem.  See pages 81-84 and use the sum rule.  Two of the constants will go to zero.  Two others will result in 1/(omega^2-alpha^2) and 1/(omega^2-beta^2); thus the given constraints.
