Solve the initial value problem given by the differential equation
dy dx=x4y2
\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{~d} x}=x^{4} y^{2}

together with the initial condition: if x=2x=-2 then y=2y=2.
To solve this, rearrange and integrate to get
f(y)dy=g(x)dx
\int f(y) \mathrm{d} y=\int g(x) \mathrm{d} x

where
f(y),g(x)=
f(y), g(x)=

Solution by Steps
step 1
Separate variables by dividing both sides by y2 y^2 and multiplying both sides by dx dx
step 2
We get 1y2dy=x4dx \frac{1}{y^2} dy = x^4 dx
step 3
Integrate both sides: 1y2dy=x4dx \int \frac{1}{y^2} dy = \int x^4 dx
step 4
The integral of 1y2 \frac{1}{y^2} with respect to y y is 1y -\frac{1}{y} , and the integral of x4 x^4 with respect to x x is x55 \frac{x^5}{5}
step 5
After integration, we have 1y=x55+C -\frac{1}{y} = \frac{x^5}{5} + C
step 6
Use the initial condition x=2 x = -2 and y=2 y = 2 to solve for C C
step 7
Substitute the initial condition into the integrated equation: 12=(2)55+C -\frac{1}{2} = \frac{(-2)^5}{5} + C
step 8
Solve for C C : C=12325=12+325=2510510=2010=2 C = -\frac{1}{2} - \frac{-32}{5} = -\frac{1}{2} + \frac{32}{5} = \frac{25}{10} - \frac{5}{10} = \frac{20}{10} = 2
step 9
Substitute C C back into the integrated equation to get the solution: 1y=x55+2 -\frac{1}{y} = \frac{x^5}{5} + 2
step 10
Solve for y y : y=1(x55+2) y = -\frac{1}{\left(\frac{x^5}{5} + 2\right)}
Answer
f(y)=1y2,g(x)=x4 f(y) = \frac{1}{y^2}, g(x) = x^4
y=1(x55+2) y = -\frac{1}{\left(\frac{x^5}{5} + 2\right)}
Key Concept
Separation of Variables and Integration
Explanation
To solve the differential equation, we separated variables and integrated both sides. We then used the initial condition to find the constant of integration and solve for y y .
