Need help solving ordinary differential equation. Thanks!
\[(3y^2)y'+(y^3)=e^{-x}\]
\[(3y^2)y'+(y^3)=e ^{-x}\]
you could try separating them sorry I need to finish this long assignment ... last problem FINALLY!
Its actually a bernoulli ODE
I'm just getting stuck on the last few steps
\[\Large\bf\sf 3y^2 y'+y^3\quad=\quad e^{-x}\] \[\Large\bf\sf u\quad=\quad y^3,\qquad\qquad\qquad u'\quad=\quad 3y^2 y'\] Giving us:\[\Large\bf\sf u'+u\quad=\quad e^{-x}\]
Mmm does that look right so far? I haven't done Bernoulli in a while :P
Then just find an integrating factor, yes? :o Oh this thread is 7hours old lol. You're probably not even here -_-
sorry I haven't learn Bernoulli
yes that is right. Sorry for taking so long to respond. I got to this point, but I ended up getting the wrong answer. :(
so do you need help further?
yes
When you use integrating factor as suggested before, you get \[ u(x) =e^{-x} + C e^{-x} \]
\[\Large y= \sqrt[3]{e^{-x} + C e^{-x}} \]
still need help?
no I got it thanks
