[college differential equations] I’m not sure how to get the right answer and I’ve been stuck for a few hours

Post Body

I’m stuck on a homework problem for my differentials class. The problem is:

A 2 pound object is suspended from a spring. The spring stretches an extra 3 inches with the weight attached. If the spring is compressed by 2 inches and released with an upward velocity of 67.8823 feet per second, find the formula describing the displacement of the object using only a single cosine function.

Then what is the differential equation for this spring-and-mass system using u as the dependent variable

Then what is the formula for the displacement of the object?

I sort of understand the problem but I keep getting it wrong and I’m not sure why.
