Exercises 1.1
First write the differential equation in the form 2zy + (22+ 2y) y’ = 0. Implicitly differentiating
Py + y? = q we obtain 2ry + (29+ 2y) y' = 0.
Fust write the differential equation in the form y’ = —2y/x. From y = ~1/2? we obtain y’ = 227%,
80 that —2y/x = 20% = y,
From y = 2 +1 we obtain y’ = 1, so that (u’}® tay’ =ltiaey.
