Separation of Variables - Arbitrary Constant, 5

Category: Differential Equations

"Published in Newark, California, USA"

Find the particular solution for


in which y = 1 when x = 0.

Solution:

Consider the given equation above


In order to separate dx and dy from other variables, divide both sides of the equation by (x + 1)(y + 1) as follows




Integrate both sides of the equation, we have 







Substitute the value of x and y in order to get the value of C as follows 





Therefore, the particular solution is
