Question

The solution of the differential equation xdydx+y=x3y6 , is 

Moderate
Solution

The given differential equation can be written as

1y6dydx+1xy5=x2

Let y5=0 , Then 

5y6dydx=dvdxy6dydx=15dvdx

Substituting these values in the given differential equation, we get

15dvdx+1xv=x2

 dvdx5xv=5x2          …(i)

This is the standard form of the linear differential equation having integrating factor

 I. F. =e5xdx=e5logx=1x5

Multiplying both sides of (i) by I.F. and integrating w.r.t. x, we get 

v1x5=5x21x5dxvx5=52x2+C

 y5x5=52x2+C  , which is the required solution.
