Question 01.
= (y x)2 + 1, y1 (x) = x, y(0) = 1/2.
Solution.
Consider,

C(x) = x2 + 1.
We have given a particular solution: y1 (x) = x. We can show that this satisfies the equation

LHS=RHS.)
Lets use the substitution w = y y1 to reduce this equation to a Bernouilli DE of degree
n = 2 (or simpler).

C(x) = 2.
But also, note that this is a separable equation. By separating variables we can solve this
equation directly, which is much faster than solving a Riccati equation which involves several
substitutions and back substitutions.
