Module Learning Outcomes
By the end of this module, the student is expected to:

1. Define separable differential equations;

2. Identify different forms of separable differential equations;
3. Solve separable differential equations
SEPARABLE DE

A separable DE has variables that can be separated and like terms can be
combined so that direct integration can be executed.

Solve the chapter exercises on Chapter 2 of the book “Differential Equations” by
Engr. Terano.
For those who do not have a copy of the book, I will provide the problems on
Google Classroom.
