Poisson equation on semi-infinite strip

Function $u(x,y)$ satisfy the equation:
$$Delta u = e^{-2y}sin x$$



in the semi-infinite strip:
$$0<x<pi, y>0$$
and the boundary condition:
$$u(0,y) = u(pi,y),text{ }u(x,0)=sin(3x),text{ } lim_{ytoinfty} u =0$$



Find $u_y(x,0)$



I've seen someone using Fourier tranform to solve similar poisson equation in the infinite strip, and separation of variables to solve Laplace in semi-infinite strip. So I'm wondering how to solve this one? (How do we usually decide when to use separation of variables and Fourier) Or the questions only asks for $u_y(x,0)$, so is it possible to find $u_y$ without solving the equation?

          Let $v=u-frac{1}{3}e^{-2y}sin(x)$, where $u$ is a solution of the stated problem. Then $v$ is a solution of
          $$
          Delta v = Delta u - e^{-2y}sin(x)= 0,
          $$

          with conditions
          $$
          v(0,y)=v(pi,y) \
          v(x,0)=u(x,0)-frac{1}{3}sin(x)=sin(3x)-frac{1}{3}sin(x)
          $$

          The solutions $v$ is
          $$
          v(x,y)=sin(3x)e^{-3y}-frac{1}{3}sin(x)e^{-y}
          $$

          So,



          begin{align}
          u(x,y)&=v(x,y)+frac{1}{3}e^{-2y}sin(x) \ &=sin(3x)e^{-3y}-frac{1}{3}sin(x)e^{-y}+frac{1}{3}sin(x)e^{-2y}.
          end{align}

          And,
          $$
          u_y(x,0)=-3sin(3x)+frac{1}{3}sin(x)-frac{2}{3}sin(x) \
          =-3sin(3x)-frac{1}{3}sin(x).
          $$
