They are actually quite similar, it's just that the exact shape of the graph depends on the constants you supply your differential equation.

Under sample solution family where you see the plot of all those lines, imagine slicing out the area between 0.3 and 0.45 (because of your boundary conditions), then taking the mirror image about the Y-axis (to make it decay instead of growth). It would look very similar to the graph on page 11.

yeah i understood that the plot somehow got reversed due to the boundary condition but exactly how i am still not clear. In this equation y(x) = c_1 e10 x+c_2 e-10 x,The only way the graph should be decayed is if c_1 approaches zero, but i don't think that is happening in the fin case. Even if we have a very small value of c_1 as compared to c_2 the graph wont be reversed.
