Short Answer

Question: In Problems 1-30, solve the equation.

t3y2dt+t4y-6dy=0

t=Ce17y7

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1: Definition and concepts to be used

Definition of Initial Value Problem: By an initial value problem for an nth-order differential equation Fx,y,dydx,...,dnydxn=0 we mean: Find a solution to the differential equation on an interval I that satisfies at x0 the n initial conditions

yx0=y0,dydxx0=y1,...dn-1ydxn-1x0=yn-1,,

Where x0I and y0,y1,...,yn-1 are given constants.

Formulae to be used:

  • Integration by parts: udv=uv-vdu.
  • xadx=xa+1a+1+C.
  • 1xdx=lnx+Ca.

Step 2: Given information and simplification

Given that,t3y2dt+t4y-6dy=0......(1)

Evaluate the equation (1).

t3y2dt+t4y-6dy=0t3y2dt=-t4y-6dyt3t4dt=-y-6y2dy1tdt=-y-8dy......(2)

Now integrate the equation (2) on both sides.

1tdt=-y-8dy......(3)

Step 3: Evaluation method

1tdt=-y-8dylnt+C1=17y-77lnt+C=y-7y=7lnt+C-17

Take 7th root on both sides.

y7=17lnt+Cy77lnt+C=1t=Ce17y7

Hence, the solution of the given initial value problem is t=Ce17y7.
