y'+xy=xy^2

OpenStudy (callisto):

Bernoulli equation?!

zepdrix (zepdrix):

heh, looks like it :)

OpenStudy (abb0t):

I thought we let \(w=y^{-2}\)

OpenStudy (callisto):

Let \(u = y^{-1}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Callisto yes its bernoulli equation

OpenStudy (callisto):

\[\frac{du}{dx} = (1-2) y^{-2} \frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{y'}{y^2}\] \[y'+xy=xy^2\]\[\frac{y'}{y^2} + \frac{x}{y} = x\]\[-u'+xu = x\]\[u'-xu = -x\]Integrating factor will do.

OpenStudy (callisto):

Can you solve the DE from here?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i cant because i dont understand it please help me Callisto

OpenStudy (abb0t):

That's odd...

OpenStudy (callisto):

Where don't you understand?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i cant solve DE

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

couldn't you just separate variables \[\frac{dy}{dx} = x(y^{2} -y)\] \[\int\limits_{}^{}\frac{dy}{y^{2}-y} = \int\limits x dx\] integrate LHS using partial fractions ...

OpenStudy (callisto):

Smart cow XD

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

@reza_anwar , can you solve it from here or should i continue?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

plese continue it dumbcow

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

ok \[\frac{1}{y(y-1)} = \frac{A}{y-1}+\frac{B}{y}\] such that Ay +B(y-1) = 1 (A+B)y -B = 1 --> A+B = 0 --> B = -1 --> A = 1 \[\rightarrow \int\limits \frac{dy}{y-1} -\frac{dy}{y} = \int\limits x dx\] \[\ln (y-1) - \ln(y) = \frac{x^{2}}{2} +C\] \[\ln( \frac{y-1}{y}) = \frac{x^{2}}{2}+C\] \[\frac{y-1}{y} = k e^{x^{2}/2}\] (k = e^C) rearrange the terms \[y - y(ke^{x^{2}/2}) = 1\] \[y = \frac{1}{1-ke^{x^{2}/2}}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@dumbcow thanks a lot
