Help me out with this ....

OpenStudy (praxer):

The solution of $$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{(x+y)^2}{(x+2)(y-2)}$$. I attempted by substituting$$\ y-2=t$$ but not able to find the solution. The options are $$\ a.(x+2)^4(1+\frac{2y}{x})=ke^{\frac{2y}{x}}$$ $$\ b. (x+2)^4(1+\frac{2(y-2)}{(x+2)})=ke^{\frac{2(y-2)}{x+2)}}$$ $$\ c.(x+2)^3(1+\frac{2(y-2)}{(x+2)})=ke^{\frac{2(y-2)}{x+2)}}$$ d. None of the above.

http://math.stackexchange.com/questions/152842/fracdydx-1-frac2xy-solution-by-an-integrating-term?rq=1 thought if it is like the ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^, but is much out of phase than what i need.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

thats a very good try! and you're almost there

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

try this : y-2 = t x+2 = u

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

dy/dx = dt/du

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

the eq'n becomes : \[\frac{dt}{du}=\frac{(u+t)^2}{ut}\]

OpenStudy (praxer):

should i expand the numerator ????

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

nope, its a homogeneous equation familiar with solving homogeneous equations ?

OpenStudy (praxer):

Ohh I didnt, notice it, ok so u/t = v and will solve the rest.. thank you :)

OpenStudy (praxer):

t/u=v

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

try t = uv

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

yes! t is the dependent variable, so we need to mess with it

OpenStudy (praxer):

$$u=v-log(v+1)+logc$$, where log c is constant.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

im getting a different solution

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\rm t = uv \implies \frac{dt}{du}= u\frac{dv}{du} + v\)

OpenStudy (praxer):

ya I got that .. !!

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\large \rm\frac{dt}{du}=\frac{(u+t)^2}{ut}\) becomes : \(\large \rm u\frac{dv}{du}+v=\frac{(1+v)^2}{v}\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

sednding that v to right hand side and sinplifying gives u : \(\large \rm u\frac{dv}{du}=\frac{1+2v}{v}\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

separate variables now

OpenStudy (praxer):

stupid me!!! I wrote v instead of 2v in the numerator expansion.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

i see... lets finish it off

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\large \rm u\frac{dv}{du}=\frac{1+2v}{v}\) \(\large \int \rm \frac{v}{2v+1}dv=\int \frac{1}{u}du\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\large \int \rm \frac{1}{2}\frac{2v+1-1}{2v+1}dv=\ln |u| + C\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\large \rm \frac{1}{2} \int 1-\frac{1}{2v+1}dv=\ln |u| + C\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\large \rm \frac{1}{2} v - \frac{1}{4}\ln | 2v+1|=\ln |u| + C\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

does that look correct ?

OpenStudy (praxer):

I think it will be 1/2 ln|2v+1| cause its d/dx is 1/2*(2/2v+1) ?????

OpenStudy (praxer):

sorry d/dv

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

there is a 1/2 factor outside the integral already

OpenStudy (praxer):

oh!! yes. so the solution is $$\large \rm \frac{1}{2} v - \frac{1}{4}\ln | 2v+1|=\ln |u| + C$$, I will put the values in terms of x and y and extract the solution. Thank you :)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

good, maybe combine that C into ln and write it as ln|Cu|

OpenStudy (praxer):

okay !!!

OpenStudy (praxer):

:) Thanks and Good night :)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Night :)

OpenStudy (praxer):

$$\frac{xdx+ydy}{xdy-ydx}=\sqrt{\frac{a^2-x^2-y^2}{x^2+y^2}}$$ Help me with this @ganeshie8

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

you're done with the other problem ?

OpenStudy (praxer):

I have used the reduced homogenous equation process and reached the following $$2tan^{-1}x=\int{\frac{a^2-u}{u}}du$$ but not able to do the LHS integration help me

OpenStudy (praxer):

yes I did the other one, $$f(x)=\sqrt{tan2x}$$ and when I used the limits I found the option b is correct i.e $$b-a\le \frac {\pi}{4}$$
