2. \( \int P\,dx=\log\sin x+\log x \).
3. IF \( =x\sin x \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Bring the equation to standard linear form before reading P.
2. If the equation is linear in x, use dx/dy + Px = Q and e raised to the integral of P dy.
(a) \( y=2x^2+cx \)
(b) \( x=2y^2+cy \)
(c) \( x^2=y^2+cy \)
(d) \( y=x^2+c \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (b) \( x=2y^2+cy \)
Explanation:
1. Rewrite: \( \frac{dx}{dy}-\frac xy=2y \).

2. IF \( =e^{-x} \).
3. \( ye^{-x}=\int x^2e^{-x}dx=-(x^2+2x+2)e^{-x}+c \).
4. So \( y+x^2+2x+2=ce^x \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Standard form dy/dx + Py = Q gives y times IF = integral of Q times IF.
2. Do not forget the constant of integration.
(a) \( y(x\sin x)=-x\cos x+\sin x+c \)
(b) \( x(x\sin x)=x\cos x-\sin x+c \)
(c) \( y\sin x=-x\cos x+2\sin x+c \)
(d) \( y\cos x=x\sin x+2\cos x+c \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (a) \( y(x\sin x)=-x\cos x+\sin x+c \)
Explanation:
1. \( \frac{dy}{dx}+\left(\frac1x+\cot x\right)y=1 \).
2. IF \( =x\sin x \).
3. \( y\,x\sin x=\int x\sin x\,dx=-x\cos x+\sin x+c \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Standard form dy/dx + Py = Q gives y times IF = integral of Q times IF.
2. Do not forget the constant of integration.
(a) \( x-y\sin x=c \)
(b) \( xy\tan x=c \)
(c) \( y=\tan x+c \)
(d) \( y=\tan x+c\sqrt{\tan x} \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (d) \( y=\tan x+c\sqrt{\tan x} \)
Explanation:
1. \( \frac{dy}{dx}-\frac{y}{\sin2x}=\frac{1}{2\cos^2x} \).
2. \( \int\mathrm{cosec}\,2x\,dx=\frac12\log\tan x \), so IF \( =\frac{1}{\sqrt{\tan x}} \).
3. \( \frac{y}{\sqrt{\tan x}}=\int\frac{\sec^2x}{2\sqrt{\tan x}}dx=\sqrt{\tan x}+c \).
4. So \( y=\tan x+c\sqrt{\tan x} \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Multiply the linear equation by its integrating factor so the left side becomes an exact derivative.
2. Then integrate and divide by the factor.
(a) \( u=\log z \)
(b) \( u=e^z \)
(c) \( u=(\log z)^{-1} \)
(d) \( u=(\log z)^2 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (c) \( u=(\log z)^{-1} \)
Explanation:
1. Divide by z and put \( w=\log z \): \( w'+\frac wx=\frac{w^2}{x^2} \).
2. This is Bernoulli with n = 2.
3. Dividing by \( w^2 \) and putting \( u=w^{-1} \) gives \( u'-\frac ux=-\frac{1}{x^2} \), which is linear.
Teacher's Note:
1. Spot the power of y on the right side to recognise a Bernoulli equation.
2. The same idea works for x as the dependent variable.

(b) \( (x+y)^2(1+y_1^2)=(x+yy_1)^2 \)
(c) \( (x+y)^2(1-y_1^2)=(x+yy_1)^2 \)
(d) \( (x-y)^2(1+y_1^2)=(x-yy_1)^2 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (a) \( (x-y)^2(1+y_1^2)=(x+yy_1)^2 \)
Explanation:
1. The circles are \( (x-a)^2+(y-a)^2=a^2 \).
2. Differentiating, \( (x-a)+(y-a)y_1=0 \), so \( a=\frac{x+yy_1}{1+y_1} \).
3. Substituting this value of a into the circle equation and simplifying gives \( (x-y)^2(1+y_1^2)=(x+yy_1)^2 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Write the family with its parameters, differentiate repeatedly and eliminate the parameters.
2. Check the final answer by differentiating the given solution once more.

Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (d) \( y\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2+2x\frac{dy}{dx}-y=0 \)
Explanation:
1. With focus at the origin and axis along the x-axis the parabola is \( y^2=4a(x+a) \).
2. Differentiating, \( yy_1=2a \).
3. Substituting: \( y^2=2yy_1x+y^2y_1^2 \).
4. Divide by y: \( yy_1^2+2xy_1-y=0 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Differentiate as many times as there are arbitrary constants, then eliminate them.
2. The order of the resulting equation equals the number of independent constants.
(a) \( x\left[yy_2+y_1^2\right]=yy_1 \)
(b) \( x^2y_2+y_1^2=y \)
(c) \( xyy_2+y_1^2=y \)
(d) \( xyy_2+y_1^2+y=0 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (a) \( x\left[yy_2+y_1^2\right]=yy_1 \)
Explanation:
1. The family is \( \frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1 \).
2. Differentiating: \( \frac{x}{a^2}+\frac{yy_1}{b^2}=0 \), so \( \frac{yy_1}{x}=-\frac{b^2}{a^2} \).
3. Differentiate again: \( \frac{x(yy_2+y_1^2)-yy_1}{x^2}=0 \).
4. So \( x(yy_2+y_1^2)=yy_1 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Write the family with its parameters, differentiate repeatedly and eliminate the parameters.
2. Check the final answer by differentiating the given solution once more.
(a) \( x^2y_2-4xy_1+6y=0 \)

(c) \( x^2y_2+4xy_1-6y=0 \)
(d) \( x^2y_2-2xy_1+6y=0 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (a) \( x^2y_2-4xy_1+6y=0 \)
Explanation:
1. \( y_1=3ax^2+2bx \) and \( y_2=6ax+2b \).
2. \( x^2y_2-4xy_1+6y=(6-12+6)ax^3+(2-8+6)bx^2=0 \).
3. So \( x^2y_2-4xy_1+6y=0 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Differentiate as many times as there are arbitrary constants, then eliminate them.
2. The order of the resulting equation equals the number of independent constants.
(a) \( \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{x^2+c^2}{x^2-c^2} \)
(b) \( \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{x^2-c^2}{x^2+c^2} \)
(c) \( \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{-c^2}{x^2} \)
(d) \( \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{c^2}{x^2} \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (b) \( \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{x^2-c^2}{x^2+c^2} \)
Explanation:
1. The hyperbola has slope \( m_1=-\frac{c^2}{x^2} \).
2. \( \tan45^\circ=\frac{m-m_1}{1+mm_1}=1 \) gives \( m(1-m_1)=1+m_1 \).
3. \( m=\frac{1+m_1}{1-m_1}=\frac{x^2-c^2}{x^2+c^2} \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Write the family with its parameters, differentiate repeatedly and eliminate the parameters.
2. Check the final answer by differentiating the given solution once more.

(b) \( 8xy_1^3=12yy_1^2+27x \)
(c) \( 8xy_1^2-12yy_1^3=9y \)
(d) \( 8xy_1^3=3(yy_1^2+4x) \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (b) \( 8xy_1^3=12yy_1^2+27x \)
Explanation:
1. Differentiate: \( 3x^2=2c(y+c)y_1 \).
2. Dividing the original by this: \( \frac{x}{3}=\frac{y+c}{2y_1} \) gives \( y+c=\frac{2xy_1}{3} \) and \( c=\frac{9x}{4y_1^2} \).
3. Substituting c: \( y=\frac{2xy_1}{3}-\frac{9x}{4y_1^2} \).
4. Clear fractions: \( 8xy_1^3=12yy_1^2+27x \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Write the family with its parameters, differentiate repeatedly and eliminate the parameters.
2. Check the final answer by differentiating the given solution once more.
(a) \( y_4=y \)
(b) \( y_4+2y_2+y=0 \)
(c) \( y_4=2y_2 \)
(d) \( y_4-2y_2+4y=0 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (b) \( y_4+2y_2+y=0 \)
Explanation:
1. The roots are \( \pm i \), each repeated twice.
2. \( (m^2+1)^2=m^4+2m^2+1 \).
3. So \( y_4+2y_2+y=0 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Write the family with its parameters, differentiate repeatedly and eliminate the parameters.
2. Check the final answer by differentiating the given solution once more.
(a) \( x^2y_2+2xy_1+2y=0 \)
(b) \( x^2y_2-2xy_1+2y=0 \)
(c) \( x^2y_2-2xy_1-2y=0 \)
(d) \( x^2y_2+2xy_1-2y=0 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (b) \( x^2y_2-2xy_1+2y=0 \)
Explanation:
1. \( y_1=2ax+b \), \( y_2=2a \).
2. \( b=y_1-xy_2 \).
3. \( y=\frac{x^2y_2}{2}+x(y_1-xy_2)=xy_1-\frac{x^2y_2}{2} \).
4. So \( x^2y_2-2xy_1+2y=0 \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Differentiate as many times as there are arbitrary constants, then eliminate them.
2. The order of the resulting equation equals the number of independent constants.

(d) \( 6xy=3x^3-29x-6 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (c) \( 6xy=3x^3+29x-6 \)
Explanation:
1. \( y=\frac{x^2}{2}-\frac1x+c \).
2. At (3, 9): \( 9=\frac92-\frac13+c \), so \( c=\frac{29}{6} \).
3. Multiply by 6x: \( 6xy=3x^3-6+29x \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Tangent and normal intercepts are expressed through y and dy/dx.
2. Setting up the equation correctly is most of the work.
(a) \( y=\frac12x^2\log x-\frac34x^2+C_1x+C_2 \)
(b) \( y=\frac12x^2\log x+\frac34x^2+C_1x+C_2 \)
(c) \( y=-\frac12x^2\log x-\frac34x^2+C_1x+C_2 \)
(d) \( y=3x^2+4x+C_1 \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (a) \( y=\frac12x^2\log x-\frac34x^2+C_1x+C_2 \)
Explanation:
1. \( \frac{dy}{dx}=\int\log x\,dx=x\log x-x+C_1 \).
2. \( y=\int(x\log x-x)dx+C_1x+C_2 \).
3. \( y=\frac{x^2}{2}\log x-\frac{x^2}{4}-\frac{x^2}{2}+C_1x+C_2 \).
4. So \( y=\frac12x^2\log x-\frac34x^2+C_1x+C_2 \).
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.

Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (c) \( (1+x^2)^{3/2}+(1+y^2)^{3/2}=c \)
Explanation:
1. \( \int x\sqrt{1+x^2}dx=\frac13(1+x^2)^{3/2} \).
2. Similarly for y.
3. So \( (1+x^2)^{3/2}+(1+y^2)^{3/2}=c \).
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.
(a) \( y=cx^2 \)
(b) \( y=cx^3 \)
(c) \( x=cye^x \)
(d) \( y=cxe^x \)
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (c) \( x=cye^x \)
Explanation:
1. Divide by xy: \( \frac{dx}{x}-\frac{dy}{y}=dx \).
2. \( \log x-\log y=x+k \).
3. \( \frac{x}{y}=ce^x \), i.e. \( x=cye^x \).
Teacher's Note:
1. Separate the variables so that each side has only one variable, then integrate both sides.
