find particular solution y=f(x

OpenStudy (goformit100):

its easy

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

\[\frac{ dy }{ dx }=6x^2-x^2y\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\Large \frac{dy}{dx}=(6-y)x^2 \] Or \[ \Large \frac{1}{6-y}dy=x^2dx \] For \(y(x) \neq 6\)

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

\[\int\limits_{}^{}\frac{ 1 }{ 6-y }dy=x^2dx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Integrate both sides.

\[-lny=2x^3+c\]

\[\Large - \ln |6-y(x)|=\frac{1}{3}x^3+C\prime  \]

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

they have given f(-1)=2

You know you have to solve it for y(x) if you can, of course - you could apply the initial conditions just now and solve for the constant. But I strongly recommend you to get the equation in explicit form if possible.

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

i got \[y(x)=ce ^{(x^3/x)}+6\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Almost, try again. You should end up with: \[\Large y(x)=6-Ce^{-\frac{1}{3}x^3} \] As you can see, I said above that \(y(x) \neq 6\) which was important, otherwise I would have divided the differential equation through 0. This equation supports that statement, this equation only becomes 6 in the limit as x approaches infinity.
