(c) \( (1-x)(1-y)=c \)
(d) \( \frac{1+x}{1-y}=c \)
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) \( \frac{1-x}{1-y}=c \)

Explanation:
1. \( \frac{dy}{1-y}=\frac{dx}{1-x} \).
2. Integrating, \( -\log|1-y|=-\log|1-x|+k \).
3. Hence \( \frac{1-x}{1-y}=c \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Separate the variables so that each side has only one variable, then integrate both sides.
2. Add the constant of integration once and simplify it into a convenient form.

Question 9: The solution of \( \frac{dy}{dx}+y\tan x=0 \) is:
(a) \( y=a\cos x \)
(b) \( y=a\sin x \)
(c) \( y=\log\cos x+c \)
(d) \( y=a\tan x+c \)
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) \( y=a\cos x \)

Explanation:
1. \( \frac{dy}{y}=-\tan x\,dx \).
2. \( \log y=\log\cos x+\log a \).
3. So \( y=a\cos x \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Look for a factorisation of the right side as f(x) times g(y).
2. Standard integrals such as dx/(1+x²) appear again and again.

Question 10: The solution of \( \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1+y^2}{\sec x} \) is:

2. Integrating, \( y=\frac{x^2}{2}+c' \), i.e. \( 2y=x^2+c \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Look for a factorisation of the right side as f(x) times g(y).
2. Standard integrals such as dx/(1+x²) appear again and again.

2. \( \frac{y^2}{2}-\frac{y^3}{3}=\frac{x^2}{2}+\frac{x^3}{3}+k \).
3. Multiply by 6: \( 3y^2-2y^3=3x^2+2x^3+c \), which is option (a).

Teacher's Note:
1. Separate the variables so that each side has only one variable, then integrate both sides.
2. Add the constant of integration once and simplify it into a convenient form.

Question 13: The solution of \( (1+e^x)\,y\,dy=e^x\,dx \) is:
(a) \( y^2=\log c(e^x+1) \)
(b) \( \frac{y^2}{2}=\log ce^x \)
(c) \( \frac{y^2}{2}=\log c(e^x+1) \)
(d) \( 2y=\log c(e^x+1) \)
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (c) \( \frac{y^2}{2}=\log c(e^x+1) \)

Explanation:
1. \( y\,dy=\frac{e^x}{1+e^x}dx \).
2. \( \frac{y^2}{2}=\log(1+e^x)+\log c \).
3. So \( \frac{y^2}{2}=\log c(1+e^x) \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Look for a factorisation of the right side as f(x) times g(y).
2. Standard integrals such as dx/(1+x²) appear again and again.

Question 14: The solution of \( y\,dx-x\,dy=0 \) is:
(a) \( y^2=cx \)
(b) \( y=cx^2 \)
(c) \( y=cx \)
(d) \( x^2=cy \)
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (c) \( y=cx \)

Explanation:
1. \( \frac{dx}{x}=\frac{dy}{y} \).
2. \( \log y=\log x+\log c \).
3. So \( y=cx \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Separate the variables so that each side has only one variable, then integrate both sides.
2. Add the constant of integration once and simplify it into a convenient form.

Question 15: The solution of \( y\,dx-x\,dy+3x^2y^2e^{x^3}dx=0 \) is:
(a) \( x+e^{x^3}=cy \)
(b) \( x+ye^{x^3}-cy=0 \)
(c) \( x-ye^{x^3}+c=0 \)
(d) \( x+ye^{x^3}+cy=0 \)
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) \( x+ye^{x^3}-cy=0 \)

Explanation:
1. Divide by \( y^2 \): \( \frac{y\,dx-x\,dy}{y^2}+3x^2e^{x^3}dx=0 \).
2. Since \( d\!\left(\frac xy\right)=\frac{y\,dx-x\,dy}{y^2} \) and \( d(e^{x^3})=3x^2e^{x^3}dx \), the equation is \( d\!\left(\frac xy+e^{x^3}\right)=0 \).
3. So \( \frac xy+e^{x^3}=c \), i.e. \( x+ye^{x^3}-cy=0 \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Look for a factorisation of the right side as f(x) times g(y).
2. Standard integrals such as dx/(1+x²) appear again and again.

Question 16: When \( x=0 \) and \( y=-1 \), the particular solution of \( (1+y^2)\,dx+(1+x^2)\,dy=0 \) is:
(a) \( x+y+xy=1 \)
(b) \( x+y+1=xy \)
(c) \( x+y+xy+1=0 \)
(d) \( x-y+xy=1 \)
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) \( x+y+1=xy \)

Explanation:
1. \( \tan^{-1}x+\tan^{-1}y=C \), so \( \frac{x+y}{1-xy}=k \).
2. At (0, -1): \( k=-1 \).
3. Then \( x+y=-(1-xy) \), i.e. \( x+y+1=xy \).

Teacher's Note:
1. A substitution such as v = x + y or v = y - x turns the equation into a separable one.
2. Always return to x and y at the end.

Question 17: The solution of \( e^x\tan y\,dx+(1-e^x)\sec^2y\,dy=0 \) is:
(a) \( \tan y=c(1-e^x) \)
(b) \( \sec y=c(1-e^x) \)
(c) \( \tan y(1-e^x)=c \)
(d) \( \sec y=1-e^x \)
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) \( \tan y=c(1-e^x) \)

Explanation:
1. Divide by \( (1-e^x)\tan y \): \( \frac{e^x}{1-e^x}dx+\frac{\sec^2y}{\tan y}dy=0 \).
2. \( -\log(1-e^x)+\log\tan y=\log c \).
3. So \( \tan y=c(1-e^x) \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Look for a factorisation of the right side as f(x) times g(y).
2. Standard integrals such as dx/(1+x²) appear again and again.

(b) \( \tan(xy)+\cos x-\cos y=c \)
(c) \( \tan(xy)+\cos x+\cos y=c \)
(d) \( \tan(xy)-\cos x+\cos y=c \)
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) \( \tan(xy)-\cos x-\cos y=c \)

Explanation:
1. Regroup: \( \frac{y\,dx+x\,dy}{\cos^2(xy)}+\sin x\,dx+\sin y\,dy=0 \).
2. \( \sec^2(xy)\,d(xy)+\sin x\,dx+\sin y\,dy=0 \).
3. Integrating, \( \tan(xy)-\cos x-\cos y=c \).

Teacher's Note:
1. If the equation is exact, the solution is F(x, y) = c with F_x = M and F_y = N.

Question 19: The population x in any year t is such that the rate of increase is proportional to the population. Then:
(a) \( x=ct \)
(b) \( x=ce^{kt} \)
(c) \( x=ce^{-kt} \)
(d) \( x=c \)
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) \( x=ce^{kt} \)

Explanation:
1. \( \frac{dx}{dt}=kx \).
2. \( \frac{dx}{x}=k\,dt \).
3. \( \log x=kt+\log c \), so \( x=ce^{kt} \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Rate problems are solved by writing dQ/dt equal to a constant times Q or a similar relation.
2. Fix the constants using the initial conditions.

Question 20: The solution of \( x^2dy+y(x+y)dx=0 \) is:
(a) \( x^2y=c^2(2x+y) \)
(b) \( xy^2=c^2(2x+y) \)
(c) \( x^2y=c^2(x+2y) \)
(d) \( xy^2=c^2(x+2y) \)
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) \( x^2y=c^2(2x+y) \)

Explanation:
1. Put \( y=vx \): \( x^2(v\,dx+x\,dv)+vx(x+vx)dx=0 \).
2. \( x\,dv+(2v+v^2)dx=0 \), so \( \frac{dv}{v(v+2)}=-\frac{dx}{x} \).
3. \( \frac12\log\frac{v}{v+2}=-\log x+\log c \), giving \( \frac{y}{y+2x}=\frac{c^2}{x^2} \).
4. So \( x^2y=c^2(2x+y) \).

Teacher's Note:
1. A homogeneous equation has every term of the same degree in x and y.
2. The substitution y = vx (or x = vy) always reduces it to a separable form.

(c) \( \tan\left(\frac yx\right)+cx-x=0 \)
(d) \( \sin\left(\frac{y}{2x}\right)-cx=0 \)
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) \( \tan\left(\frac{y}{2x}\right)-cx=0 \)

Explanation:
1. Put \( y=vx \): \( v+x\frac{dv}{dx}=v+\sin v \).
2. \( \frac{dv}{\sin v}=\frac{dx}{x} \).
3. \( \log\tan\frac v2=\log x+\log c \).
4. So \( \tan\frac{y}{2x}=cx \).

Teacher's Note:
1. Put y = vx so that dy/dx = v + x dv/dx and the variables separate.
2. Return to y/x after integrating.

Question 22: The solution of \( y^2dx+(x^2-xy+y^2)dy=0 \) is:
(a) \( \tan^{-1}\left(\frac xy\right)+\log y+c=0 \)
(b) \( 2\tan^{-1}\left(\frac xy\right)+\log x+c=0 \)
(c) \( \log\left(y+\sqrt{x^2+y^2}\right)+\log y+c=0 \)

Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) \( \tan^{-1}\left(\frac xy\right)+\log y+c=0 \)

Explanation:
1. Put \( x=vy \): \( y^2(v\,dy+y\,dv)+(v^2-v+1)y^2dy=0 \).
2. \( (v^2+1)dy+y\,dv=0 \).
3. \( \frac{dy}{y}+\frac{dv}{1+v^2}=0 \).
4. \( \log y+\tan^{-1}\frac xy+c=0 \).

Teacher's Note:
1. A homogeneous equation has every term of the same degree in x and y.
