Integrating Factors
1. Problem 1: Find the integrating factor for the differential equation $$dx + \left(\frac{x}{y} - \sin y\right) dy = 0.$$
- Generally, the integrating factor depends on whether the equation is exact or can be made exact by multiplying by a function of $x$ or $y$.
- The options given are:
A. $x$
B. $y$
C. $x^{2}y^{3}$
D. $\frac{x^{2}}{y^{3}}$
- By analyzing the form, the integrating factor is $y$ (Option B) to make this equation exact.
2. Problem 2: Find the integrating factor for the differential equation $$y(x + y)dx + (x + 2y - 1)dy = 0.$$
- The options are:
A. $\ln x$
B. $e^{x}$
C. $x$
D. $1$
- Testing reveals that the integrating factor is $x$ (Option C).
3. Problem 3: Find the solution for the differential equation $$y(x + y)dx + (x + 2y - 1)dy = 0.$$
- Options:
A. $y(x + y - 1) = ce^{-x}$
B. $c = (x - 1)y + y^{2}e^{x}$
C. $y(x + y - 1) = ce^{x}$
D. $c = x^{2}(x - 1)y + y^{2}e^{x}$
- The correct solution is $y(x + y - 1) = ce^{-x}$ (Option A).
Final answers:
- Problem 1: B ($y$)
- Problem 2: C ($x$)
- Problem 3: A ($y(x + y - 1) = ce^{-x}$)
