Can someone explain me how to find DE of y=e^(Cx)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

DE means

OpenStudy (anonymous):

differential equations

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C e^(Cx)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

dy/dx = d(e^(Cx))/dx =d(e^(Cx))/d(Cx) . d(Cx)/dx =e^(Cx) . C =C e^(Cx)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answer is y' = y*lny/x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it ? I am not sure about what you have written

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it say so in the book

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont understand....its says that i have to find equation, which solution is y= e^(cx)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, as far as I know, y' = Ce^(Cx)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got the same result

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so probably something is wrong with your book or something is wrong with both of us

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well you can see that \[y(x) = e^{Cx} \] implies that \[y'(x) = Ce^{Cx} = Cy\] But apparently your book would like to get rid of explicit mention of C. \[\ln(y) = \ln(e^{Cx}) = Cx\] so \[C = \frac{\ln(y)}{x} \] and so plugging that in, \[y'(x) = y\cdot \frac{\ln(y)}{x} \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y=e^(Cx) y'=Ce^(Cx)

Don't seem alot of questions that make you go backwards on differential equations
