 Solution

The source factor cancels the singular denominator of the Green function. Splitting the integral at $\xi =x$ givesUsing $\int (1+\xi )e^{-\xi }d\xi =-(\xi +2)e^{-\xi }$, these two integrals are $e-(x+2)e^{-x}$ and $5/2-x-e(x+2)e^{-x}/2$, respectively. Simplification givesThe exponential and linear terms are homogeneous solutions, while direct differentiation gives $L(-x^2)=x$ for $x\ne 0$. Also $y(-1)=y(1)=0$, and the expression is analytic through zero. Uniqueness in this regular class follows because any difference is a global linear combination $A{e}^x+B(1+x)$: the left boundary forces $A=0$, and the right then forces $B=0$.
