(1 point) A Bernoulli differential equation is one of the form
dydx+P(x)y=Q(x)yn (∗)
Observe that, if n=0 or 1, the Bernoulli equation is linear. For
other values of n, the substitution u=y1−n transforms the Bernoulli
equation into the linear equation
dudx+(1−n)P(x)u=(1−n)Q(x).dudx+(1−n)P(x)u=(1−n)Q(x).
Consider the initial value problem
y′=−y(1+9xy3), y(0)=−3.
(a) This differential equation can be written in the form (∗)
with
P(x)= ,
Q(x)= , and
n=.
(b) The substitution u= will transform it into the linear
equation
dudx+ u= .
(c) Using the substitution in part (b), we rewrite the initial
condition in terms of x and u:
u(0)= .
(d) Now solve the linear equation in part (b). and find the
solution that satisfies the initial condition in part (c).
u(x)=u .
(e) Finally, solve for y.
1/(y(x))3=
I just need parts c - e
