I need help with seperable equations
\[y \prime = 6(1+x)^6\]
I'm really confused by these types of problems. I'm new to diffy Q
\[\large \frac{dy}{dx}=6(1+x)^6\]We'll start by moving the dx to the other side. Simply think of this process as multiplication for now :) No reason to confuse yourself.\[\large dy=6(1+x)^6 \;dx\]We'll take the integral of both sides,\[\large \int\limits dy=\int\limits 6(1+x)^6 \;dx\]Understand up to this point? :D
yes this is where I get lost
So the left side should be fairly straight forward. The anti-derivative of a constant is the variable we're integrating with respect to.\[\large y+c=\int\limits 6(1+x)^6 \;dx\]
right no do I just differentiate this like usual?
anti-differentiate it like usual, yes :) Since the inner function is 1+x, we don't need to worry about the chain rule causing trouble for us on this one. We can simply apply the `Power Rule for Integration` and get a nice clean answer.
So you're new to Diff EQ, but have you had some work with Integrals yet? :D I hope hehe
haha @zepdrix diff eq is like cal 4 in my college, so i would hope they have at least passed cal 2 to be in diff eq
XD
yes I have I'm just really confused by how this question is worded let me try to show you
Its set up in parts and the 1st part is \[\int\limits_{?}^{?} blank dy = black +C \]
black should be blank
and in your solution I dont see dy on the left side...
why did you type blank? I don't understand D:
So it looks like this?\[\large \int\limits \qquad dy= \qquad +C\]
You don't see the dy in mine? Is the equation not showing up correctly? Or you mean when I came up with the solution part? The `dy` and the `swirly S bar` both disappear through the process of taking the anti-derivative of the contents of the integral.
