Integrating Factor

I. Integrating Factor by Inspection. Solve the following differential equations.

1. 𝑦(2𝑥𝑦 + 1)𝑑𝑥 − 𝑥𝑑𝑦 = 0

2. (𝑥 + 1)𝑑𝑦 − 𝑦𝑑𝑥 = 0

3. (3𝑥 2𝑦 − 𝑥 2 )𝑑𝑥 + 𝑑𝑦 = 0

4. (𝑥 3 𝑦 3 + 1)𝑑𝑥 + 𝑥 4 𝑦 2 𝑑𝑦 = 0

5. 2𝑥𝑑𝑦 + 𝑦(2 + 𝑥𝑦 2 )𝑑𝑥 = 0

II. Integrating Factor by Solution. Solve the following differential equations

1. 𝑥𝑑𝑦 = (𝑥𝑦 2 − 𝑦)𝑑𝑥

2. 𝑥𝑦 2 𝑑𝑥 + 𝑥 2 𝑦𝑑𝑦 = 0

3. 2𝑦(𝑥 2 − 𝑦 + 𝑥)𝑑𝑥 + (𝑥 2 − 2)𝑑𝑦 = 0

4. 𝑦(4𝑥 + 𝑦)𝑑𝑐 − 2(𝑥 2 − 𝑦)𝑑𝑦 = 0

5. (4𝑥𝑦 + 3𝑦 2 − 𝑥)𝑑𝑥 + 𝑥(𝑥 + 2𝑦)𝑑𝑦 = 0
