Solve this DE by seperation of variables: yln(x)x'=(y+1)^2/x^2
alright i split it up to get \[yln(x)\frac{dx}{dy}=\frac{(y+1)^2}{x^2}\]
then made a common factor to fact out CF=\[\frac{x^2}{y}dy\] which got me to \[x^2ln(x)dx=\frac{(y+1)^2}{y}dy\]
squaring the top and seperating the numerator while also taking anti derivative \[\int\limits_{}^{}x^2\ln(x)dx=\int\limits_{}^{}\frac{y^2}{y}dy+\int\limits_{}^{}\frac{2y}{y}dy+\int\limits_{}^{}\frac{dy}{y}\]
simplifying and doing the right side you get \[\int\limits_{}^{}x^2\ln(x)dx=\frac{y^2}{2}+2y+\ln(y)+c\]
now doing the right side by parts is where i got something different from the book
using by parts i get \[u=ln(x)\] \[du=\frac{1}{x}\]
\[dv=x^2\] \[v=\frac{x^3}{3}\]
\[uv-\int\limits_{}^{}vdu=\frac{x^3}{3}\ln(x)-\int\limits_{}{}\frac{x^2}{x}dx\]
]
not sure what happened there sam as i can't see anything
simplifying the integral and doing it yields \[\frac{x^3}{3}\ln(x)-\frac{x^2}{2}+c_2\]
but that is not what is within the book?
trying to notice my mistake
or if it's a mistake in the book
the y side is correct however this is what they have for the answer \[\frac{x^3}{3}\ln(x)-\frac{x^3}{9}=\frac{y^2}{2}+2y+\ln(y)+c\]
Sorry I thought you are doing it by using integrating factor:(
i found the error instead of x^3 i had x^2 only idk why but thanks anyway
somewhere inbetween i must have mixed it up
\[\int\limits_{}{}\frac{x^3}{3x}dx=\frac{1}{3}\int\limits_{}{}x^2dx=\frac{1}{9}x^3\]
Seems right:)
\[\frac{1}{3}x^3(\ln(x)-\frac{1}{3})\]
