First Order Differential Equations
This page details a method for finding the solutions to equations of the form
Using the Integrating Factor:
Example 1[edit | edit source]
Consider the following equation:
Now the So the integrating factor is:
Multiply the original equation by
Then try:
Which is equal to the LHS giving us:
Then integrate with respect to x:
Giving:
- (This is the general solution)
