differential equation & linear algebra equation. I need to know how to use Bernoulli Equation to solve for xy' + y + x^2y^2e^x
i want to know the step by step.
\[xy'+y=x^2e^xy^2\]
uh... step by steps?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli_differential_equation \[z=y^{1-2}=y^{-1}\]
.... okay thanks
lol..wikipedia
oh! can you help?!
i'll let @mukushla do his thing
....
his using wikipedia...
\[z'=-\frac{y'}{y^2}\]\[xy'+y=x^2e^xy^2\]divide by y^2\[x\frac{y'}{y^2}+\frac{1}{y}=x^2e^x\]now u have\[-xz'+z=x^2e^x\]
this is a first order linear diff equation solve it for z
okay thank you for the help ~.~
welcome
do you know the form of Bernoulli's equation @adunb8 ?
well know i looked at it it looks like its \[y' + p(x)y = q(x)y^n\]
right
so your first step should be to transform your equation into that form
yes i made it into \[y' + x^{-1} y = xy^2e^x\]
wait....what's the original equation?
\[xy' + y + x ^{2}y ^{2}e ^{x}\]
= 0
