Document Summary

Math 1b: calculus - lecture 16: more differential equations. Suppose (dy/dx) = xy and y(0) = 1. 1/y (dy/dx) dx = x dx ln|y| = x. 2/2 + c, where c is a constant. Since y(0) = 1, ln|1| = 02/2 +c. Since (dy/dx) exists, y is differentiable and continuous as a function of x. Moral: don"t get lost in the algebra (when considering absolute values). A: find all solutions to (dy/dx) = xy. Note that y = 0 is a solution. Also, if y 0, then (1/y) (dy/dx) = x. As y is continuous, the solutions are y = e(x^2)/2 + c, y = -e(x^2)/2 + c, and y=0. as in previous example, solve again. This may be described as y = ke(x^2/2), where k is a real number constant. Instead of separation of variables, use the integrating factor method. )
