please help! question in comments

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[y(x)=2+\int\limits_{1}^{x}\left(\begin{matrix}dt \\ ty(t)\end{matrix}\right)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x>0

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Did you try differentiating ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ dy }{ dx }=\frac{ dx }{ xy(x) }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is this part correct?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

dx wont be there after differentiating

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\frac{ dy }{ dx }=\frac{ 1 }{ xy }\]

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

separate variables and solve the DE

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ y^2 }{ 2 }=\ln \left| x \right|+C\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[C=\frac{ y^2 }{ 2 }-\ln \left| x \right|\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But what do I do from here?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

use the intial condition to find C

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

y(1) = 2

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

plugin x = 1, y = 2 in the final equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[C=\frac{ 2^2 }{ 2 }-\ln \left| 1 \right|\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So C=2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[y=\sqrt{2\ln \left| x \right|+4}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is this right?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Looks good!
