The original PDF shows $x^2$ in the nonzero source branch. Inserting that source into $G_0$ gives, for $x<1/2$,For $x\ge 1/2$, split the integral at $z=x$:Because of the homogeneous freedom established in part (i), the full answer to the stated endpoint problem isAt the interface, both branches have value $-5/96$ and derivative $-5/48$, so no extra delta or delta derivative occurs there. Direct substitution gives zero source on the left and $x^2$ on the right; the endpoint values are zero for every $C$. If the extra condition $y/x\to 0$ is imposed, it selects $C=-5/48$, but that is additional information absent from the printed question.
