Hints

- At \(x=0\), the relation \(y+1=Ce^{3x^2}\) becomes \(y(0)+1=C\). - Use the shifted initial value, not \(y(0)\) alone, to determine \(C\). - Substitute the corrected constant back into the solution and check the initial condition.

Solution

1. Separate and integrate: \(\frac{dy}{y+1}=6x\,dx\), so \(\ln|y+1|=3x^2+C\) and \(y+1=Ce^{3x^2}\). 2. Apply \(y(0)=2\): \(3=C\). 3. Therefore, \(y=3e^{3x^2}-1\).

Answer

At \(x=0\), \(y+1=3\), so \(C=3\). The solution is \(y=3e^{3x^2}-1\).
53999112
For the initial-value problem \(y'=\frac{x}{y},\quad y(0)=-2\), explain why the negative branch, not the positive branch, must be chosen.

Hints

- Integration gives a square relation, so solving for \(y\) creates two branches. - Evaluate both branches at \(x=0\). - Choose the branch whose value matches \(-2\) and keep that sign continuously on the solution interval.

Solution

1. Separate and integrate: \(y\,dy=x\,dx\), so \(y^2=x^2+C\). 2. Apply \(y(0)=-2\), giving \(C=4\). 3. Thus \(y=\pm\sqrt{x^2+4}\), and the initial value selects \(y=-\sqrt{x^2+4}\).

Answer

Integration gives \(y^2=x^2+4\). Since \(y(0)=-2\), the particular solution is \(y=-\sqrt{x^2+4}\).
53999212

Solution

1. The right side \(1/y\) is undefined when \(y=0\). 2. Because the proposed initial point lies outside the differential equation's domain, no differentiable solution can satisfy the initial condition.

Answer

No solution exists because the differential equation is undefined when \(y=0\), including at the proposed initial point.
53999312
For the initial-value problem \(y'=2x,\quad y(a)=b\), write the particular solution directly in terms of the parameters \(a\) and \(b\).

Hints

Solution

1. Use the accumulation form \(y=b+\int_a^x2t\,dt\). 2. Evaluate the integral: \(y=b+x^2-a^2\).

Answer

Using an initial-value integral, \(y=b+\int_a^x2t\,dt=b+x^2-a^2\).

Solution

1. Use the initial value as the starting velocity and accumulate acceleration from \(3\) to \(t\). 2. \(v(t)=10+\int_3^t(4-0.5u)\,du=10+4(t-3)-\frac{t^2-9}{4}=-\frac{1}{4}t^2+4t+\frac{1}{4}\).

Answer

For the initial-value problem \(y'=f(x),\quad y(1)=7\), which expression is guaranteed to define the particular solution when \(f\) is continuous: A. \(7+\int_0^x f(t)\,dt\), B. \(7+\int_1^x f(t)\,dt\), or C. \(\int_1^7 f(t)\,dt\)? Justify.

Hints

- The lower limit must be the initial \(x\)-value so the integral is zero at \(x=1\). - Differentiate each candidate using the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. - Select the expression that satisfies both \(y'=f(x)\) and \(y(1)=7\).

Solution

1. Use the initial-value accumulation form \(y=7+\int_1^x f(t)\,dt\). 2. By the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, its derivative is \(f(x)\), and at \(x=1\) the integral is \(0\), so \(y(1)=7\). Therefore, choice B is correct.

Answer

Choice B. The derivative of \(7+\int_1^x f(t)\,dt\) is \(f(x)\), and at \(x=1\) the integral is \(0\), so \(y(1)=7\).
54348312
Find the particular solution of \(y'=\frac{x}{y^3}\) satisfying \(y(0)=2\). State its maximal interval and evaluate \(y(3)\).

Hints

Solution

1. Rearrange as \(y^3\,dy=x\,dx\). 2. Integration gives \(\frac{y^4}{4}=\frac{x^2}{2}+C\), or \(y^4=2x^2+C_1\). 3. The initial condition gives \(C_1=16\). Since \(y(0)>0\), select \(y=(2x^2+16)^{1/4}\). 4. The expression is positive for every real \(x\), so the maximal interval is \((-\infty,\infty)\). Also, \(y(3)=34^{1/4}\).

Answer

\(y(x)=(2x^2+16)^{1/4}\), with maximal interval \((-\infty,\infty)\), and \(y(3)=34^{1/4}\).

A. \(y=2+\sqrt{x^2+1}\) B. \(y=2-\sqrt{x^2+1}\) C. \(y=2+\sqrt{x^2-1}\) D. \(y=2-\sqrt{x^2-1}\) a) Select and verify the correct branch. b) State its maximal interval. c) Explain why choice B satisfies the differential equation where defined but fails the initial-value problem. d) Find \(y(\sqrt3)\).

Hints

- Separate and integrate to determine which candidate forms are possible. - Use the initial condition to choose between the two square-root signs. - Check whether the selected branch can reach the singular level \(y=2\).

Solution

1. Separation gives \((y-2)^2=x^2+1\), so the only possible branches are A and B. 2. Choice A gives \(y(0)=3\), while choice B gives \(y(0)=1\). Therefore, A is the IVP solution. 3. For A, \(y-2=\sqrt{x^2+1}>0\) for every real \(x\), so the differential equation remains defined on \((-\infty,\infty)\). 4. Choice B has the opposite square-root sign. It satisfies the same squared relation and differential equation, but it does not satisfy the stated initial condition. 5. \(y(\sqrt3)=2+\sqrt4=4\).

Answer

a) A. \(y=2+\sqrt{x^2+1}\) b) \((-\infty,\infty)\) c) Choice B gives \(y(0)=1\), not \(3\). d) \(y(\sqrt3)=4\)
54361212
Solve the initial-value problem \(y'=\frac{2xy}{1+x^2}\), \(y(1)=5\). State the maximal interval and find \(y(0)\).

Hints

- Separate the factor of \(y\) from the rational x-expression. - Recognize the derivative of the denominator in the x-integral. - Use the initial condition after simplifying the exponential form.

Solution

1. Separate variables: \(\frac{dy}{y}=\frac{2x}{1+x^2}\,dx\). 2. Integrating gives \(\ln|y|=\ln(1+x^2)+C\), so \(y=C_1(1+x^2)\). 3. The initial condition gives \(5=2C_1\), so \(C_1=\frac52\). 4. Thus \(y=\frac52(1+x^2)\), which is nonzero and defined for all real \(x\). 5. Therefore, the maximal interval is \((-\infty,\infty)\), and \(y(0)=\frac52\).

Answer

\(y=\frac52(1+x^2)\), on \((-\infty,\infty)\), and \(y(0)=\frac52\).
54362012

Hints

- Separate the shifted dependent variable. - Use the initial condition to determine the sign after exponentiating. - Evaluate the sine function at the requested inputs.

Solution

1. Separate variables: \(\frac{dy}{y+1}=\cos x\,dx\). 2. Integrating gives \(\ln|y+1|=\sin x+C\). 3. The initial condition gives \(y+1=e^{\sin x}\), so \(y=e^{\sin x}-1\). 4. This solution is defined for all real \(x\), so the maximal interval is \((-\infty,\infty)\). 5. The requested values are \(y(\frac{\pi}{2})=e-1\) and \(y(\pi)=0\).

Answer

\(y=e^{\sin x}-1\), on \((-\infty,\infty)\); \(y(\frac{\pi}{2})=e-1\) and \(y(\pi)=0\).
54364712
Solve the initial-value problem \(y'=\frac{x^2}{y^2}\), \(y(0)=1\). State the maximal interval and find \(y(1)\).

Solution

1. Separate variables: \(y^2\,dy=x^2\,dx\). 2. Integrating gives \(\frac{y^3}{3}=\frac{x^3}{3}+C\). 3. The initial condition gives \(y^3=x^3+1\), so \(y=(x^3+1)^{1/3}\). 4. The original equation is undefined at \(y=0\), which occurs at \(x=-1\). The maximal interval containing \(0\) is \((-1,\infty)\). 5. \(y(1)=\sqrt[3]{2}\).

Answer

\(y=(x^3+1)^{1/3}\), on \((-1,\infty)\), and \(y(1)=\sqrt[3]{2}\).
54366312
A student solves \(y'=\frac{1+y}{1+x}\), \(y(0)=2\), and obtains \(y=3x+2\). The student says the maximal interval is \((-\infty,\infty)\) because the formula \(3x+2\) is defined for every real \(x\). a) Explain the error. b) State the correct maximal interval containing \(x=0\). c) Determine \(\lim_{x\to-1^+}y(x)\).

Hints

- Check the domain of the differential equation, not only the domain of the explicit formula. - Choose the connected interval containing the initial x-value. - Evaluate the one-sided limit from the explicit solution after fixing the interval.

Solution

1. The explicit formula alone does not determine the maximal interval; the original differential equation must also be defined. 2. The denominator \(1+x\) is zero at \(x=-1\), so no solution interval can cross that point. 3. The interval containing the initial x-value \(0\) is \((-1,\infty)\). 4. Using \(y=3x+2\), \(\lim_{x\to-1^+}y(x)=-1\). The finite limit does not remove the singularity in the differential equation.

Answer

a) The original differential equation is undefined at \(x=-1\), even though \(3x+2\) is defined there. b) \((-1,\infty)\) c) \(\lim_{x\to-1^+}y(x)=-1\)
54368312
Solve the initial-value problem \(y'=xe^y\), \(y(0)=0\). State the maximal interval and find \(y(1)\).

Hints

- Move the exponential in \(y\) to the differential side. - Apply the initial condition before taking a logarithm. - The logarithm's positivity condition determines both endpoints.

Solution

1. Separate variables: \(e^{-y}\,dy=x\,dx\). 2. Integrating gives \(-e^{-y}=\frac{x^2}{2}+C\). 3. The initial condition gives \(e^{-y}=1-\frac{x^2}{2}\). 4. Thus \(y=-\ln\left(1-\frac{x^2}{2}\right)\). 5. The logarithm requires \(|x|<\sqrt2\), so the maximal interval is \((-\sqrt2,\sqrt2)\). 6. \(y(1)=-\ln\left(\frac12\right)=\ln2\).

Answer

\(y=-\ln\left(1-\frac{x^2}{2}\right)\), on \((-\sqrt2,\sqrt2)\), and \(y(1)=\ln2\).
54369612
The solution of \(y'=\frac{2x}{1+e^y}\), \(y(0)=0\), first reaches \(y=\ln 2\) at a positive x-coordinate. Find that x-coordinate and state the maximal interval of the solution.

Hints

- Separate the sum in the denominator without trying to isolate \(y\) first. - Substitute the target value into the implicit relation. - Use monotonicity of the left side to justify a global, single-valued solution.

Solution

1. Separate variables: \((1+e^y)\,dy=2x\,dx\). 2. Integration gives \(y+e^y=x^2+C\). 3. The initial condition gives \(C=1\), so \(y+e^y=x^2+1\). 4. At \(y=\ln2\), the left side is \(\ln2+2\), so \(x^2=1+\ln2\). The first positive x-coordinate is \(x=\sqrt{1+\ln2}\). 5. Since \(y+e^y\) is strictly increasing from \(-\infty\) to \(\infty\), the implicit relation defines a unique real solution for every real \(x\). Thus the maximal interval is \((-\infty,\infty)\).

Answer

The first positive x-coordinate is \(\sqrt{1+\ln2}\), and the maximal interval is \((-\infty,\infty)\).

Solution

1. Separate and antidifferentiate to obtain \(y^2=\frac{2}{3}x^3+C\). 2. Apply \(y(0)=-3\), giving \(C=9\). 3. The initial value selects the negative branch: \(y=-\sqrt{\frac{2}{3}x^3+9}\). 4. The radicand must be positive because the original equation is undefined at \(y=0\). Thus \(x>-\sqrt[3]{\frac{27}{2}}\).

Answer

\(y=-\sqrt{\frac{2}{3}x^3+9}\), on the maximal interval \(\left(-\sqrt[3]{\frac{27}{2}},\infty\right)\)

Hints

- Multiply by \(1+y^2\) and integrate to an implicit cubic relation. - Use \(y(0)=0\) to determine the integration constant. - The left side is strictly increasing in \(y\), so the implicit relation selects one real branch.

Solution

1. Rearrange as \(y\,dy=e^{-x}\,dx\). 2. Integration gives \(\frac{y^2}{2}=-e^{-x}+C\). 3. The initial condition gives \(2=-1+C\), so \(y^2=6-2e^{-x}\). 4. The positive initial value selects \(y=\sqrt{6-2e^{-x}}\). The original denominator requires \(6-2e^{-x}>0\), so \(x>-\ln3\). 5.

The original denominator is zero at \(x=0\), so the maximal interval containing \(1\) is \((0,\infty)\). 5. Therefore, \(y(8)=8^{2/3}=4\).

Answer

\(y(x)=x^{2/3}\), with maximal interval \((0,\infty)\), and \(y(8)=4\).

Solution

1. Separation gives \(y^2=2x\ln x-2x+C\). 2. The initial condition gives \(2=-2+C\), so \(C=4\). 3. Since the initial value is positive, \(y=\sqrt{2x\ln x-2x+4}\). 4. The radicand has derivative \(2\ln x\), so its minimum on \(x>0\) occurs at \(x=1\), where it equals \(2\). Thus the maximal interval is \((0,\infty)\). 5. At \(x=e\), \(y(e)=\sqrt{2e-2e+4}=2\).

Solution

1. Rearrange as \((1+y^2)\,dy=\cos x\,dx\). 2. Integration and the initial condition give \(y+\frac{y^3}{3}=\sin x\). 3. The function \(F(y)=y+\frac{y^3}{3}\) is strictly increasing and has range all real numbers, so the relation defines one real \(y\) for every real \(x\). 4. At \(x=\pi\), \(F(y)=0\), so \(y(\pi)=0\). 5. The differential equation gives \(y'(\pi)=\frac{\cos\pi}{1+0^2}=-1\).

Answer

\(y+\frac{y^3}{3}=\sin x\) for all real \(x\); \(y(\pi)=0\) and \(y'(\pi)=-1\).

Solution

1. Separate variables: \((e^y+2)\,dy=(3x^2-2x)\,dx\). 2. Integration gives \(e^y+2y=x^3-x^2+C\). 3. The initial condition gives \(C=1\), so \(e^y+2y=x^3-x^2+1\). 4. The left side has derivative \(e^y+2>0\) and range \((-\infty,\infty)\), so it determines one real \(y\) for every real \(x\). The maximal interval is \((-\infty,\infty)\). 5. At \(x=1\), the right side is \(1\), and \(y=0\) satisfies \(e^y+2y=1\). Therefore, \(y(1)=0\).

Answer

\(e^y+2y=x^3-x^2+1\), on \((-\infty,\infty)\), and \(y(1)=0\).

The solution of \(y'=\frac{x}{1+y^2}\), \(y(0)=1\), eventually reaches \(y=2\) for positive \(x\). Find the x-coordinate where this first occurs. An explicit formula for \(y\) is not required.

Hints

- Separate and integrate before using either given value of \(y\). - Use the initial condition to fix the constant. - Substitute the target value into the implicit relation and choose the positive x-coordinate.

Solution

1. Separate variables: \((1+y^2)\,dy=x\,dx\). 2. Integrating gives \(y+\frac{y^3}{3}=\frac{x^2}{2}+C\). 3. The initial condition gives \(C=\frac{4}{3}\). 4. Set \(y=2\): \(2+\frac{8}{3}=\frac{x^2}{2}+\frac{4}{3}\). 5. Thus \(\frac{x^2}{2}=\frac{10}{3}\), so the first positive x-coordinate is \(x=\sqrt{\frac{20}{3}}\).

Answer

\(x=\sqrt{\frac{20}{3}}=\frac{2\sqrt{15}}{3}\).

Solution

1. Separate variables: \(2y\,dy=\cos x\,dx\). 2. Integrating gives \(y^2=\sin x+C\). 3. The initial condition gives \(C=4\), and the positive initial value selects \(y=\sqrt{4+\sin x}\). 4. Since \(4+\sin x\ge3\), the solution never reaches the singular value \(y=0\), so its maximal interval is \((-\infty,\infty)\). 5. At \(x=\frac{\pi}{2}\), \(y=\sqrt5\).

Answer

\(y=\sqrt{4+\sin x}\), on \((-\infty,\infty)\), and \(y\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right)=\sqrt5\).

Using the tangent addition formula, \(y=\frac{x+1}{1-x}\). 5. The interval containing \(0\) ends at the singularity \(x=1\), so the maximal interval is \((-\infty,1)\). 6. Substitution gives \(y(-1)=0\).

Answer

\(y=\frac{x+1}{1-x}\), on \((-\infty,1)\), and \(y(-1)=0\).

Solution

1. Separate variables: \((1+y)\,dy=e^{-x}\,dx\). 2. Integrating gives \(y+\frac{y^2}{2}=-e^{-x}+C\). 3. The initial condition gives \(C=\frac52\). 4. The branch containing \(y=1\) reaches the singular level \(y=-1\) when the right side equals \(-\frac12\). This occurs when \(e^{-x}=3\), or \(x=-\ln3\). 5. Hence the maximal interval is \((-\ln3,\infty)\). 6. As \(x\to\infty\), the relation becomes \(y+\frac{y^2}{2}=\frac52\). The branch containing positive values gives \(y=-1+\sqrt6\).

Answer

\(y+\frac{y^2}{2}=\frac52-e^{-x}\), on \((-\ln3,\infty)\), and \(\lim_{x\to\infty}y(x)=-1+\sqrt6\).

The branch through \((0,0)\) is \(y=\arcsin\left(\frac{x^2}{2}+x\right)\). 4. It reaches the singular level \(y=\frac{\pi}{2}\) when \(\frac{x^2}{2}+x=1\), at \(x=-1\pm\sqrt3\). 5. Therefore, the maximal interval containing \(0\) is \((-1-\sqrt3,-1+\sqrt3)\). 6. At \(x=-1\), \(\sin y=-\frac12\), and the selected branch gives \(y(-1)=-\frac{\pi}{6}\).

Answer

\(\sin y=\frac{x^2}{2}+x\), with maximal interval \((-1-\sqrt3,-1+\sqrt3)\), and \(y(-1)=-\frac{\pi}{6}\).

Solution

1. Separate variables: \(\frac{dy}{1-y^2}=\frac{dx}{x}\). 2. Integrating and using the initial condition gives \(\frac12\ln\left(\frac{1+y}{1-y}\right)=\ln x\) for \(x>0\). 3. Thus \(\frac{1+y}{1-y}=x^2\), so \(y=\frac{x^2-1}{x^2+1}\). 4. The maximal interval containing \(1\) is \((0,\infty)\). 5. \(y(2)=\frac35\), and \(\lim_{x\to0^+}y(x)=-1\).

Solve the initial-value problem \(y'=\frac{y\ln y}{1+x^2}\), \(y(0)=e\). State the maximal interval and find the limits as \(x\to\infty\) and \(x\to-\infty\).

Hints

- A logarithmic substitution removes the factor of \(y\). - Solve the resulting linear separable equation for the new variable. - Use the endpoint limits of the inverse tangent function.

Solution

1. Let \(u=\ln y\). Since \(u'=\frac{y'}{y}\), the equation becomes \(u'=\frac{u}{1+x^2}\). 2. Separating gives \(\frac{du}{u}=\frac{dx}{1+x^2}\), so \(u=Ce^{\arctan x}\). 3. The initial condition \(u(0)=1\) gives \(C=1\). 4. Therefore, \(y=\exp(e^{\arctan x})\), which is positive and defined for all real \(x\). 5. The limits are \(\exp(e^{\pi/2})\) as \(x\to\infty\) and \(\exp(e^{-\pi/2})\) as \(x\to-\infty\).

Solution

1. Separate variables: \((1-y)\,dy=2x\,dx\). 2. Integrating and using the initial condition gives \(y-\frac{y^2}{2}=x^2\). 3. Rearranging gives \((y-1)^2=1-2x^2\). 4. The initial value selects \(y=1-\sqrt{1-2x^2}\). 5. The branch reaches the singular level \(y=1\) at \(x=\pm\frac{1}{\sqrt2}\), so the maximal interval is \(\left(-\frac{1}{\sqrt2},\frac{1}{\sqrt2}\right)\). 6. \(y\left(\frac12\right)=1-\sqrt{\frac12}=1-\frac{1}{\sqrt2}\).

Solution

1. Separate variables: \(\frac{dy}{1+y^2}=e^{-x}\,dx\). 2. Integrating and using the initial condition gives \(\arctan y=1-e^{-x}\). 3. Thus \(y=\tan(1-e^{-x})\). 4. Moving left from \(0\), the first tangent pole occurs when \(1-e^{-x}=-\frac{\pi}{2}\), so \(x=-\ln\left(1+\frac{\pi}{2}\right)\). 5. Moving right, the argument approaches \(1<\frac{\pi}{2}\), so there is no right endpoint. The maximal interval is \(\left(-\ln\left(1+\frac{\pi}{2}\right),\infty\right)\). 6. The limit is \(\tan1\).

Answer

\(y=\tan(1-e^{-x})\), on \(\left(-\ln\left(1+\frac{\pi}{2}\right),\infty\right)\), and \(\lim_{x\to\infty}y(x)=\tan1\).

The solution of \(y'=\frac{\cos x}{1-y^2}\), \(y(0)=0\), reaches \(y=\frac12\) for positive \(x\). Find that x-coordinate and state the maximal interval of the solution.

Hints

- Use the target y-value in the implicit particular solution. - The singular levels are determined by the denominator in the original equation. - Find the nearest x-values where the implicit relation reaches those levels.

Solution

1. Separate variables: \((1-y^2)\,dy=\cos x\,dx\). 2. Integrating and using the initial condition gives \(y-\frac{y^3}{3}=\sin x\). 3. At \(y=\frac12\), the left side is \(\frac12-\frac{1}{24}=\frac{11}{24}\), so the first positive x-coordinate is \(x=\arcsin\frac{11}{24}\). 4. The original equation is singular at \(y=\pm1\). The implicit left side equals \(\pm\frac23\) there. 5. Starting from \(x=0\), the first such points occur at \(x=\pm\arcsin\frac23\), so the maximal interval is \(\left(-\arcsin\frac23,\arcsin\frac23\right)\).

Answer

\(x=\arcsin\frac{11}{24}\), and the maximal interval is \(\left(-\arcsin\frac23,\arcsin\frac23\right)\).

Solve the initial-value problem \(y'=e^x(1+y^2)\), \(y(0)=0\). State the maximal interval or branch containing the initial point.

Hints

- Integrate \(dy/(1+y^2)=e^x\,dx\). - Use \(y(0)=0\) to set the constant in the inverse-tangent relation. - Determine the maximal interval by finding where the tangent argument first reaches a pole on each side of the initial point.

Solution

1. Separate and antidifferentiate to obtain \(\arctan y=e^x+C\). 2. Apply \(y(0)=0\), giving \(C=-1\). 3. The particular solution is \(y=\tan(e^x-1)\). 4. The nearest tangent pole to the right satisfies \(e^x-1=\frac{\pi}{2}\); there is no finite left endpoint. The maximal interval containing \(0\) is \(\left(-\infty,\ln\left(1+\frac{\pi}{2}\right)\right)\).

Answer

\(y=\tan(e^x-1)\), on \(\left(-\infty,\ln\left(1+\frac{\pi}{2}\right)\right)\)

Find the solution curve of \(y'=\frac{x+1}{2y+1}\) that passes through the point specified by \(y(0)=0\). State the maximal interval or branch containing the initial point.

Hints

- Multiply by \(2y+1\) and integrate to an implicit quadratic relation. - Use \((0,0)\) before applying the quadratic formula. - Choose the quadratic branch containing \(y=0\) and find the nearest point where the original denominator \(2y+1\) becomes zero.

Solution

1. Separate and antidifferentiate to obtain \(y^2+y=\frac{x^2}{2}+x+C\). 2. Apply \(y(0)=0\), giving \(C=0\). 3. The initial condition selects \(y=\frac{-1+\sqrt{2x^2+4x+1}}{2}\). 4. The radicand is positive on the interval containing \(0\) when \(x>-1+\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\).

Answer

\(y=\frac{-1+\sqrt{2x^2+4x+1}}{2}\), on \(\left(-1+\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2},\infty\right)\)

Separate the variables in \(y'=\frac{3x^2}{2y+1}\), then apply \(y(0)=0\) to find the particular solution. State the maximal interval or branch containing the initial point.

Hints

- Multiply by \(2y+1\) and integrate \(3x^2\). - Use \((0,0)\) before solving the quadratic relation for \(y\). - Choose the branch containing the initial value and stop where \(2y+1=0\).

Solution

1. Separate and antidifferentiate to obtain \(y^2+y=x^3+C\). 2. Apply \(y(0)=0\), giving \(C=0\). 3. The particular solution is \(y=\frac{-1+\sqrt{1+4x^3}}{2}\). 4. The initial point selects the stated branch, with \(x>-\sqrt[3]{\frac14}\).

Answer

\(y=\frac{-1+\sqrt{1+4x^3}}{2}\), with \(x>-\sqrt[3]{\frac14}\)

Find the particular solution of \(y'=(1+x^2)(1-y)^2\) satisfying \(y(0)=\frac{7}{4}\). State the maximal interval containing \(x=0\).

Hints

- Rearrange the equation so each side contains only one variable. - Apply the initial condition to the integrated relation before solving for \(y\). - Locate where the denominator of the explicit solution vanishes and determine which side contains the initial point.

Solution

1. Rearrange as \(\frac{dy}{(1-y)^2}=(1+x^2)\,dx\). 2. Integration gives \(\frac{1}{1-y}=x+\frac{x^3}{3}+C\). 3. The initial condition gives \(-\frac{4}{3}=C\), so \(y=1-\frac{1}{x+\frac{x^3}{3}-\frac{4}{3}}\). 4. The denominator is zero at \(x=1\). Because its derivative is \(1+x^2>0\), this is its only real zero. The maximal interval containing \(0\) is \((-\infty,1)\).

Answer

\(y(x)=1-\frac{1}{x+\frac{x^3}{3}-\frac{4}{3}}\), with maximal interval \((-\infty,1)\).

A student solves \(y'=\frac{3x^2}{2y-1}\), \(y(1)=2\), and obtains \(y=\frac{1+\sqrt{4x^3+5}}{2}\). The student gives the maximal interval as \(\left[-\sqrt[3]{\frac54},\infty\right)\) because the square root is defined at the left endpoint. a) Verify the explicit solution and initial condition. b) Explain why the endpoint cannot be included. c) State the correct maximal interval.

Hints

- Differentiate the proposed branch and simplify \(2y-1\). - Check the original denominator at the endpoint, not only the square-root domain. - A maximal solution interval must be open and cannot contain a singular point of the differential equation.

Solution

1. Differentiating gives \(y'=\frac{3x^2}{\sqrt{4x^3+5}}\). 2. Since \(2y-1=\sqrt{4x^3+5}\), the differential equation gives the same derivative wherever the denominator is nonzero. 3. At \(x=1\), \(y(1)=\frac{1+3}{2}=2\), so the initial condition is satisfied. 4. At \(x=-\sqrt[3]{\frac54}\), the square root is zero, so \(2y-1=0\). The original differential equation is undefined there. 5. Therefore, the maximal interval containing \(x=1\) is \(\left(-\sqrt[3]{\frac54},\infty\right)\).

Answer

a) The formula satisfies the differential equation where \(4x^3+5>0\), and \(y(1)=2\). b) At the proposed endpoint, \(2y-1=0\), so the differential equation is undefined. c) \(\left(-\sqrt[3]{\frac54},\infty\right)\)

Solve the initial-value problem \(y'=\frac{y}{x(1+\ln y)}\), \(y(1)=e\). State the maximal interval and find \(y(e^{5/2})\).

Hints

- A logarithmic substitution simplifies the factor \(y'/y\). - Complete the square in the transformed variable. - Use the initial condition to select a branch and the original denominator to find the endpoint.

Solution

1. Let \(u=\ln y\). Then \(u'=\frac{y'}{y}=\frac{1}{x(1+u)}\). 2. Separate and integrate: \((1+u)\,du=\frac{dx}{x}\), so \(u+\frac{u^2}{2}=\ln x+C\). 3. The initial condition \(u(1)=1\) gives \(C=\frac32\). 4. Thus \((u+1)^2=2\ln x+4\). The initial value selects \(u=-1+\sqrt{2\ln x+4}\). 5. The solution reaches the singular level \(u=-1\) when \(x=e^{-2}\), so the maximal interval is \((e^{-2},\infty)\). 6. At \(x=e^{5/2}\), \(u=-1+\sqrt9=2\), so \(y=e^2\).

Answer

\(y=\exp\left(-1+\sqrt{2\ln x+4}\right)\), on \((e^{-2},\infty)\), and \(y(e^{5/2})=e^2\).
