Differential Equations home work

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, now we can talk.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{x ^{2}+5y ^{2}}{2xy}\] with y(1) = \[\sqrt{?}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y(1) = sqrt(3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What change of variable did you use?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I ended up with v+xv' = \[\frac{x ^{2}+5(xv)^{2}}{2x^{2}v}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm you can try by taking \(y =v*x\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

after that i had v+xv' = (1+5v^2)/(2v) ? is that right ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{dv}{dx}*x + v\] \[ \frac{dv}{dx} + v = \frac{1 + 5v^2 }{2v}\] \[\frac{dv}{dx} = \frac{1+5v^2}{2v}-v\] \[\frac{2v}{1 + 5v^2 -2v^2} dv= dx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now Integrate them :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Where did your x go? you have just dv/dx? I thought it should be x(dv/dx)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\int \frac{2v}{1 + 3v^2}dv=\int d x\] \[t = 1 + 3v^2 \] \[\frac{dt}{6v} = dv\] \[\frac{1}{3}*\int \frac{1}{t} dt = \int dx \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm .... \[\frac{x ^{2}+5(xv)^{2}}{2x^{2}v}\]\[\frac{\cancel{x}^2(1 + 5v^2)}{\cancel{x^2}(2v})\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that what you were talking about ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I understand that part but i thought y' = xv'(x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y' = v+xv' **

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[y = v*x\] \[\frac{dy}{dx} = (\frac{d}{dx}v)* (x) + (\frac{dx}{dx})* v \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{1}{3}*\log t + C_1 = x + C_2\]

myininaya (myininaya):

\[2xy y'-5y^2=x^2\] we need (y^2)'=2yy' so look we have \[x (2yy')-5y^2=x^2\] so we need multiply by v(x)>0 \[vx(2yy')-5vy^2=vx^2\] we need (vx)'=-5v v'x+v=-5v v'x=-6v \[\frac{dv}{dx} x=-6v => \frac{1}{v} dv=-\frac{6}{x} dx\] integrate both sides \[\ln(v)=-6\ln|x|+k_0\] \[\ln(v)=-6 \ln|x|+k_0, let k_0=0 =>\ln(v)=-6 \ln|x| =>v=x^{-6}=\frac{1}{x^6}, x \neq 0 \] so we have \[\frac{1}{x^6}x(2yy')-5\frac{1}{x^6}y^2=\frac{1}{x^6}x^2 \] \[\frac{1}{x^5}(2yy')-\frac{5}{x^6}y^2=\frac{1}{x^4} \] \[(\frac{1}{x^5}y^2)'=\frac{1}{x^4}\] integrate both sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[t = 1 + 3v^2\]\[y = xv\]\[v=\frac{y}{x}\] \[t = 1 + 3*\frac{y^2}{x^2}\]

myininaya (myininaya):

\[\frac{1}{x^5}y^2=\frac{x^{-4+1}}{-4+1}+K \]

myininaya (myininaya):

\[\frac{y^2}{x^5}=\frac{x^{-3}}{-3}+K\] \[\frac{y^2}{x^5}=\frac{-1}{3x^3}+K\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You are So Good with \(\LaTeX\) !!!

myininaya (myininaya):

\[y^2=\frac{-x^5}{3x^3}+Kx^5 =\frac{-x^2}{3}+Kx^5 \] \[y=\pm \sqrt{\frac{-x^2+3Kx^5}{3}}=\pm \sqrt{x^2}\frac{\sqrt{3Kx^3-1}}{\sqrt{3}}=\pm x \frac{\sqrt{3Kx^3-1}}{\sqrt{3}} \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

myininaya <3 lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

teach me your ways! D:

myininaya (myininaya):

lol

myininaya (myininaya):

i tried to force the linear method because its all i can remember lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

myininaya I was just saying to malevolence that i dont understand at all wtf she's doing lmao... I haven't been taught that yet =/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks for the help though guys I'm starting to understand it

myininaya (myininaya):

how to solve first order linear differential equations?

myininaya (myininaya):

you haven't been taught that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nah not yet, the fall semester has just started and she hasn't actually taught us how to solve the equations yet, just how to do initial value problems and a few other things

myininaya (myininaya):

omg she should really teach you how to solve something in this form first: \[y'+p(x)y=q(x)\]

myininaya (myininaya):

its really the most basic differential equation you can solve by sides any that you can solve for separation of variables

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah.... honestly i'm not sure about this teacher. Idk how i'm gonna end up doing because she gives really hard work and her lecture is minimal in the help department

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's a 2 hour long class... she's from upstate new york and talks incredibly fast... the class starts and she starts talking and doesn't stop till her 2 hours are up

myininaya (myininaya):

lol

myininaya (myininaya):

ask her to give you guys a review how to solve first order linear differential equations

myininaya (myininaya):

are you guys scared of her?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Seriously i wish i could ask questions but she DOESN'T give time to ask questions in class

myininaya (myininaya):

office hours?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

she has her tablet computer with her stuff on the projector... she starts teaching and looks down at her tablet and basically doesn't lift her head for 5 minutes at a time. It's awful =/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah that's about the only time I could possibly get to her to ask her questions but her office hours are the times that i'm NOT on campus and I live about 15 miles away from campus so it's hard to get out there

myininaya (myininaya):

well that sucks

myininaya (myininaya):

do you want me teach you how to solve \[y'+p(x)y=q(x)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If i had time to learn anything more than doing this home work I would definitely be up for it, but this stuff is due tomorrow unfortunately

myininaya (myininaya):

ok good luck i hoped i helped a little

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lol well I'm sure i'll be posting more on open study throughout this semester so keep an eye out for me! =)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hell... I'm probably gonna post more today to be honest
