Problem: Find the solution of the differential equation dy/dx=x^3 -x with the initial condition y(0) = -3.

Solution:
dy/dx=x^3 -x
Or,dy=(x^3 -x)dx
On Integrating,∫▒〖dy=∫▒(x^3 -x)dx〗
Or,y=x^4/4-x^2/2+C
Given: y(0)= -3
Therefore,
-3=0^4/4-0^2/2+C
Or,-3=C
Therefore,
y=x^4/4-x^2/2-3
Type your answer here:
y(x) = x^4/4-x^2/2-3
Problem: Find the solution of the differential equationdy/dt=t^2 / (3y^2), with the initial condition y(0) = 8.
Solution:
dy/dt=t^2/((3y^2 ) )
Or,3y^2 dy=t^2 dt [cross-multiplication]
On integrating both sides,3∫▒〖y^2 dy=∫▒〖t^2 dt〗〗
Or,3(y^3/3)=t^3/3+C
Or ...
