Solve the differential equation, given that y = 1 where x = 2
straight x dy over dx plus straight y space equals space straight x cubed.

Solution

The given differential equation is
                       straight x dy over dx plus straight y space equals space straight x cubed
or          dy over dx plus 1 over straight x straight y space equals space straight x squared
Comparing it with dy over dx plus Py space equals space straight Q comma space space space we space get comma space space space straight P space equals space 1 over straight x comma space space straight Q space equals space straight x squared
                     integral straight P space dx space equals space integral 1 over straight x dx space equals space log space straight x
therefore space space space straight e to the power of integral straight P space dx end exponent space equals space straight e to the power of log space straight x end exponent space equals space straight x
therefore  solution of given differential equation is
                            ye space to the power of integral straight P space dx end exponent space equals space integral space straight Q. space straight e to the power of integral straight P space dx end exponent space dx space plus straight c space space space space or space space space straight y. space straight x space equals space integral straight x squared. space space straight x space dx space plus space straight c
or         xy equals space integral straight x cubed dx plus straight c space space or space space straight x space straight y space equals space straight x to the power of 4 over 4 plus straight c space space space or space space space straight y space equals space straight x cubed over 4 plus straight c over straight x
Now straight y space equals space 1 space space space space when space straight x space equals space 2
therefore space space space space space space space space space space space 1 space equals space 8 over 4 plus straight c over 2 space space space or space space space 1 space equals space 2 plus straight c over 2 space space space space space space rightwards double arrow space space space space straight c space equals space minus 2
therefore space space solution is  straight y space equals space straight x cubed over 4 minus straight x over 2.
