whats next

Nnesha (nnesha):

\[\huge \rm t \cdot \frac{dQ}{dt} +2Q =e^t ; Q(1)=2\] \[\large\rm \frac{ dQ }{ dt } =(\frac{ e^t}{t}-\frac{2Q}{t}) \] \[\large\rm dQ =(\frac{ e^t}{t}-\frac{2Q}{t}) dt\]\[\large\rm \int\limits_{}^{} dQ = \int(\frac{ e^t}{t}-\frac{2Q}{t}) dt\]

Hmm I don't think this one is separable :( Are you familiar with `integrating factor` technique?

Nnesha (nnesha):

whats that

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Oh noooo I just lost what I was writing T.T Misclick lol

Nnesha (nnesha):

X"D

zepdrix (zepdrix):

\[\large\rm Q'+\frac{2}{t}Q=\frac{e^t}{t}\] So ummm, remember your product rule, I'll use Q just to show you what we're sort of looking for,\[\large\rm (uQ)'=uQ'+u'Q\] So what we want to do is, multiply the left side of our equation by some special value to make it look like an expanded product rule. From there, we can simplify it to look like left side of product rule equation.

Nnesha (nnesha):

Q_Q

zepdrix (zepdrix):

You make this special substitution, we call this our integrating factor,\[\large\rm u=e^{\int\limits P(t)dt}\]Where P(t) is the thing on the Q, so in this case, 2/t.\[\large\rm u=e^{\int\limits \frac2t~dt}\] I can show you where this weird integrating factor comes from if you care, it's not too difficult to understand I think :o So anyway, for our problem,\[\large\rm u=e^{2\ln t}\qquad\to\qquad u=e^{\ln t^2}\qquad\to\qquad u=t^2\]

zepdrix (zepdrix):

So if we multiply through by t^2, it will turn out differential equation into an expanded product rule that we can manipulate.\[\large\rm t^2\left(Q'+\frac2tQ\right)=t^2\left(\frac{e^t}{t}\right)\]

zepdrix (zepdrix):

\[\large\rm t^2Q'+2tQ=te^t\] And on the left side, you can see that 2t is the derivative of t^2, right? So our left side is actually,\[\large\rm (t^2Q)'\]

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Too confusing? :U What do you think?

Nnesha (nnesha):

i think milkyway > twix

zepdrix (zepdrix):

What?? That's crazy talk! Butterfinger >>> all

Nnesha (nnesha):

sorry

zepdrix (zepdrix):

\[\large\rm t^2Q'+2tQ=te^t\]\[\large\rm (t^2Q)'=te^t\]Integrate both sides,\[\large\rm t^2Q=\int\limits te^t~dt\]and then integration by parts, ya? Oh well XD if it's too much I sorry

OpenStudy (jerry45):

ok so there is 3 ppl watching this post and its 2:59 wtf? smh

zepdrix (zepdrix):

There's nothing else on the tv :P

OpenStudy (jerry45):

lol same

OpenStudy (jerry45):

yt is ded right now XD

OpenStudy (jerry45):

type faster

Nnesha (nnesha):

`Faster`

OpenStudy (jerry45):

._.

OpenStudy (jerry45):

gn guys!

Nnesha (nnesha):

\[e^{\int\limits_{}^{} }\]haven't learned this in class hmm im confused and this question is on the review sheet Q_Q

zepdrix (zepdrix):

hmm :d

Nnesha (nnesha):

well, i'll just skip this one...i have a test today in few hours and i already have too much to cover

zepdrix (zepdrix):

ahh good idea :D

Nnesha (nnesha):

\[\large\rm \int\limits_{ }^{} te^t dt = te^t- \int\limits_{}^{} e^tdt\] dv= e^t dt , v=e^t u=t du = dt \[\large\rm t^2 Q= te^t-e^t+Chocolates\]

Nnesha (nnesha):

and then divide by t^2 that was easy @_@

Nnesha (nnesha):

Thanks
