y=1/3sint - 1/3cost is a particular solution to the nonhomogeneous equation. To get the general solution to the nonhomogeneous equation, you must add the general solution to the associated homogeneous equation y''+4y=0.
This is y=k1sin(2x)+k2cos(2x).
The final general solution is:
y=k1sin(2x)+k2cos(2x)+1/3sint - 1/3cost

is this a differential equation you are trying to solve? If so, your answer is wrong.
