Consider the diff eq dy/dt = ((e^y)*sin(t)^2)/y*sec(t))
considering it...
My work thus far is y*dy/dt = e^y sin^2(t)/sec(t) how do I switch e^y to the other side?
do I multiply by ln(e^y)?
is that \[\sin^2(t)\] or \[sin(t^2)\]
sin^2(t)
ydy/ e^y = sin^2 t cost dt
ok... just to make sure \[\frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{e^y\sin^2(t)}{y\sec(t)}\]
That is the correct equation
\[ye^{-y}dy = \sin^{2}tcostdt\]
looks like your on the right track with separation of variables. Move the e^y term over to get \[ye^{-y}dy = \frac{\sin^2(t)}{\sec(t)}\] simplify the right hand side to get what him1618 has...
now for RHS take u = sin t
integration by parts on the left hand side. U-substitution for the left hand side.
What is the move that allows me to move e^y over
divide by e^y both sides?
multiply both sides by e^{-y}
because 1/e^y = e^-y?
yes
Thanks folks
