looks like a trick question
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
if initial values are given, then there can exist oly one solution right ?
OpenStudy (rmrjr22):
there are two... so the book says
they ended up making it dy/3y^(2/3) = dx
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
thats okay, but i dont see yet how two solutions can be there uhmm
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
lets dive in and see wat we get maybe..

next, integrate both sides
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
\(\large y'= 3y^{\frac{2}{3}} \)
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
its same as :
\(\large \frac{dy}{dx}= 3y^{\frac{2}{3}} \)
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
cross multiply
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
\(\large \frac{dy}{3y^{\frac{2}{3}} }= dx \)

integrate both side
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
\(\large \int \frac{dy}{3y^{\frac{2}{3}} }= \int dx \)
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
\(\large \frac{1}{3}\int y^{-\frac{2}{3}} dy= \int dx \)
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
\(\large \frac{1}{3} \frac{y^{-\frac{2}{3}+1}}{-\frac{2}{3}+1}= x + c\)
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
simplify a bit

\(\large y^{\frac{1}{3}}= x + c\)
OpenStudy (rmrjr22):
thats it?
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
if u plugin (0, 0), u wud get c = 0
so the solution wud be :
\(\large y^{\frac{1}{3}}= x \)
\(\large y= x^3 \)
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
thats the oly one final solution
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
you're talking about TWO solutions ?

*ur textbook
OpenStudy (rmrjr22):
yeah it says at least two... so idk
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
uhmm u dont have answers ?
OpenStudy (rmrjr22):
i have y = 0 and y = x^3
