I'm trying to substitute one Differential equation into another differential equation.

eq1:=d*n(t)/dt = (rho(t)-beta)*n(t)/Lambda+lambda*C(t)+q

eq2:=diff(eq1, t)

resulting in -> eq2 := d*(diff(n(t), t))/dt = (diff(rho(t), t))*n(t)/Lambda+(rho(t)-beta)*(diff(n(t), t))/Lambda+lambda*(diff(C(t), t))

then I'm given that (diff(C(t), t)) is given by another equation: 

eq3:=d*C(t)/dt = beta*n(t)/Lambda-lambda*C(t)

At this point I'm trying to substitute equation 3 into equation 2 for diff(C(t),t)

eq4 := subs(diff(C(t), t) = rhs(eq2), eq5)

however no matter what way's I try this I get an error: 

Error, (in simpl/reloprod) invalid terms in product: (d*(diff(n(t), t))/dt = (diff(rho(t), t))*n(t)/Lambda+(rho(t)-beta)*(diff(n(t), t))/Lambda+lambda*(diff(C(t), t)))^-1

I then tried to map it but again i got an error specifically about the first parameter: 

Error, invalid operator parameter name

eq5:=map((d/dt C(t))->beta/Lambda*n(t)-lambda*C(t),eq2)

I'm just wondering if what I am trying to do is even possible in Maple? 

If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it! 

I am trying to recreate journal work for validating using another computer program so I am trying to use maple to solve the ODE, based on further research I found using laplace might be the best but I am having some trouble.

eq8:=d*(n(t)+C(t))/drho = -rho(t)/(l*alpha*K_c)

given the initial conditions of:

ICs:= n(0) = n_0, rho(0) = rho_0, C(0) = (beta-rho_0)*n_0/(l*lambda)

therefore: 

equation9 := dsolve({equation8, ICs}, {C(t), n(t)}, method = laplace)

Following this process I get the error: 

Error, (in dsolve) invalid initial condition

According to the journal work the solution I am looking for is: 

C(t)=-n(t)+(rho_0^2+rho(t)^2)/(2*l*alpha*K_c)+((Beta+l*lambda-rho_0)*n_0)/(l*lambda)

is there something that I'm doing wrong or missing? 

Any help would be greatly Appreciated!
