ODE problem change of variable problem.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I hate these questions can see what else I can do

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Here's my work so far.

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

are you asking (i)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not a fan of these questions, you need to think outside the box a lot of the time

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I noticed a big mistake, I currently at this point.

OpenStudy (experimentx):

plugin to WA ...and check your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@experimentX Wolfram Alpha?

OpenStudy (experimentx):

yep

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I did, it gives me a separable differential equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can't figure out however how to get my RHS to look like t((z^2)+2)

OpenStudy (experimentx):

yep ... separate the variables and integrate it.

OpenStudy (experimentx):

can you use draw or equation feature?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can use math type it's a lot fast that equation feature here.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I've posted my working above. but I know noticed some things are wrong. I know I am close to working this out my RHS is slightly different to what the question wants.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's x=zt though

OpenStudy (anonymous):

dz/dt*t+z

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I've made a mess of this now...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm currently at

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

\[tx\frac{\text dx}{\text dt}=2t^4+t^2x^2+x^2\] \[\frac{\text dx}{\text dt}=\frac{2t^3}x+tx+\frac xt\] \[z(t)=\frac{x(t)}t\]\[x(t)=zt\]\[\frac{\text d (x(t))}{\text dt}=z't+z\] \[\frac{\text d(z't)}{\text dt}+z=\frac{2t^2}z+zt^2+z\]

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

ops my last line is wrong

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

\[\frac{\text dz}{\text dt}t+z=\frac{2t^2}z+zt^2+z\]

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

now minus the z and divide by t

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

\[\frac{\text dz}{\text dt}=\frac{2t}z+zt=t\left(\frac 1z+z\right)\] which is seperable

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

ops 1=2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have to get the answer in the form the question asks though

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

all you have to is multiply by z

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

and fix the 1=2 error i made

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't see a mistake...it's look fine once I multiply be z and factorise the RHS.

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

cool
