help me in linear diff. equation pls

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

PROBLEM IS \[y lny dx + (x - lny ) dy = 0\]

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

@myininaya

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

so i need to divide the equation by ylny y dy?

myininaya (myininaya):

yes and your integrating factor will be in terms of y instead of x

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

so \[\frac{ dx }{ dy } + \frac{ x }{ ylny } -y\]

myininaya (myininaya):

\[y \ln(y) dx+(x- \ln(y)) dy=0 \\ \text{ divide both sides by } y \ln(y) dy \\ \frac{y \ln(y) dx + (x-\ln(y)) dy}{ y \ln(y) dy} =\frac{0}{y \ln(y) dy} \\ \frac{y \ln(y) dx}{y \ln(y) dy} +\frac{(x-\ln(y)) dy}{y \ln(y) dy}=0 \\ \frac{dx}{dy} +\frac{x-\ln(y)}{y \ln(y)}=0 \\ \frac{dx}{dy} +\frac{x}{y \ln(y)}-\frac{\ln(y)}{y \ln(y)}=0 \] so you should have had =1/y instead of -y

myininaya (myininaya):

i think the -y contained a type-o anyways :p

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

oops i think the lny in the left side would be cancel

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

and it should be 1/y?

myininaya (myininaya):

yes -ln(y)/[y ln(y)] is just -1/y

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

yep

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

so whats our p(y) im having trouble in ln huhu

myininaya (myininaya):

p(y) is thing next to x

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

so its x/ylny?

myininaya (myininaya):

\[\frac{dx}{dy} +\color{Red}{\frac{1}{y \ln(y)}} x=\frac{1}{y}\]

myininaya (myininaya):

well the thing next to x

myininaya (myininaya):

not the thing next to x including also x

myininaya (myininaya):

just the 1/(y ln(y))

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

what im confused

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

ah yes cause the x iss cancel

myininaya (myininaya):

the x doesn't cancel

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

and q(y) is 1/y

myininaya (myininaya):

yes

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

ah, okay

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

our if is. \[\int\limits e ^{\frac{ 1 }{ ylny }} dy\]

myininaya (myininaya):

\[\frac{dx}{dy}+\frac{1}{y \ln(y)} x=\frac{1}{y} \\ \text{ when compared \to } \frac{dx}{dy}+p(y) x=q(y) \\ \text{ this tells us } p(y)=\frac{1}{y \ln(y)} \text{ and } q(y)=\frac{1}{y}\]

myininaya (myininaya):

well the e should not be inside the integral

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

oops yes, typo

myininaya (myininaya):

\[e^{ \int\limits p(y) dy} =e^{\int\limits \frac{1}{y \ln(y)} dy}\]

myininaya (myininaya):

easy to make type-o in complicated math coding

myininaya (myininaya):

hint if you need one: let u=ln(y)

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

\[e ^{\int\limits \frac{ 1 }{ ylny }} dy\]

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

so its ln ylny + c

myininaya (myininaya):

did you do the sub for that integral i mentioned ?

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

oops no

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

u = lny du = lny dy dv = y v = y^2/2

myininaya (myininaya):

don't know where dv and v come from \[\int\limits \frac{1}{y \ln(y)} dy \\ u=\ln(y) \\ du=\frac{1}{y} dy \\ \int\limits \frac{1}{\ln(y) } \cdot \frac{1}{y} dy \\ \int\limits \frac{1}{u} du\]

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

so our IF is y

myininaya (myininaya):

let's go slower so you know that integral above is ln|u| +C or let's just say ln|u| because we are going to take the C as zero anyways and u=ln(y) so the integral above is actually ln(ln(y)) what does e^(ln(ln(y)) =?

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

e^ln is 1 and e^ lny is 1/y

myininaya (myininaya):

\[e^{ \ln(G(y))} =G(y) \text{ assuming } G(y) \text{ is positive }\]

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

okay thne

myininaya (myininaya):

we have \[e^{ \ln(\ln(y))}=....\]

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

\[e^\ln \] and \[e ^{lny}\]

myininaya (myininaya):

\[e^{ \ln(kitty)}=kitty \\ e^{\ln(G(y))}= G(y) \\ e^{\ln(\ln(y))}=?\]

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

e^lny

myininaya (myininaya):

you should say \[e^{\ln(\color{red}{\ln(y)})}=\color{red}{\ln(y)}\]

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

oops ya

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

so lny is 1/y

myininaya (myininaya):

if you differentiate ln(y) yes but why are you doing that

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

cause were finding I.F

myininaya (myininaya):

we already found I.F.

myininaya (myininaya):

\[I.F. =e^{ \int\limits p(y) dy}=e^{ \int\limits \frac{1}{y \ln(y)} dy} =e^{ \ln(\ln(y))}=\ln(y)\]

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

ah then the solution is \[(lny)x = \int\limits (\frac{ 1 }{ y })(lny) dy + C\]

myininaya (myininaya):

yah

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

what next now

myininaya (myininaya):

the integration thingy there we need to do it

myininaya (myininaya):

do a substitution

myininaya (myininaya):

recognize that the derivative of ln(y) is ...

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

1/y

myininaya (myininaya):

bingo

myininaya (myininaya):

so let u=ln(y) and du=1/y dy

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

allright then

myininaya (myininaya):

you have a pretty little integral to evaluate now

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

can 1/y be y^-1

myininaya (myininaya):

yes 1/y is y^(-1) but why are you rewriting 1/y right now

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

so ln y(lny)

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

is ln^2y

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

\[lny(x) = lny(lny) + c\]

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

\[lny(x) = \ln^2y\] + c

myininaya (myininaya):

ok i can agree to that!

myininaya (myininaya):

oops

myininaya (myininaya):

there is a little coefficient missing right?

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

2ln^2y

myininaya (myininaya):

\[\int\limits \frac{1}{y} \ln(y) dy\\ u=\ln(y) \\ du= \frac{1}{y} dy \\ \int\limits u du \\=\frac{u^2}{2}+C =\frac{ \ln^2(y)}{2}+C \]

myininaya (myininaya):

so you were missing a 1/2 in front of that ln^2(y) thing

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

ay yes so \[lny(x) = \frac{ \ln ^{2y} }{ 2 } + c\]

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

divide both side by 2

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

so it gives \[2x lny = \ln ^{2y} +c\]

myininaya (myininaya):

well you actually multiplied both sides by 2 and you could say 2c but 2c is just still an unknown constant so i guess you could still call it c but i don't like to and you mean \[2 x \ln(y) =\ln^2(y) +k\] or as i said i guess you can call that k c if you want

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

ah okay but is that right

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

You're doing calculus, so you're a big man and you must be extremely careful with the notation. Does the expression \(\ln^{2y}\) make any sense to you ?

myininaya (myininaya):

yeah did you want to solve for x or is that all you need to do?

OpenStudy (erikaxx):

yes, no need to solve for x, thankyou for your help ! :)
