@zepdrix
OpenStudy (marcelie):
i was thinking of factoring iit
\[\frac{ dy }{ dx }= y(x^2-1)+(x^2-1)\]
zepdrix (zepdrix):
Ooo nice :) I didn't see that.
OpenStudy (marcelie):
\[dy/dx = (y+1)+(x^2-1)\]

Woops!
zepdrix (zepdrix):
\[\large\rm \left[y\color{orangered}{(x^2-1)}+1\color{orangered}{(x^2-1)}\right]\quad=\quad \color{orangered}{(x^2-1)}[y+1]\]
zepdrix (zepdrix):
No plus between the factors, ya?
OpenStudy (marcelie):
oh crapt...yeh
OpenStudy (marcelie):
so then hmm

Now sure?
Separate variables.
Get the y's on the left, leave the x's on the right.
OpenStudy (marcelie):
\[|(y+1)|dy=(x^2-1)dx\]
zepdrix (zepdrix):
Hmm I'm not sure what you did...
How did you move (y+1) to the left side..?
zepdrix (zepdrix):
It was `multiplying` the x stuff,
so to move it to the left you must _________.
OpenStudy (marcelie):
oh i did a mistake arghh
okay so the
1
_____ dy = (x^2-1) dx
(y+1)

Good
OpenStudy (marcelie):
so then hmmm integerate
OpenStudy (marcelie):
ln | y+1| = 1/3 x^3-1x
OpenStudy (marcelie):
okay so then we put e|dw:1481133360688:dw|
