ODE problem? http://i.imgur.com/v52SK.jpg

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not sure how to start this one off, the t^2*x is just confusing me.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Unless I need to use the product rule maybe.

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

factorize the right hand side then use separation of variables

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

\[\frac{\text dx}{\text dt}=1+t^2+x+t^2x\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok so LHS=(t^2+1)+t^2*x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry about this, the lag on this site is terrible, constantly needing to refresh the page, servers are a mess it seems.

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

try factorizing the right hand side again,

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(1+t^2) (1+x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ah I see now, divide 1+x and multiply by dt.

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

thats right
