* Given the differential equation dx = y with the initial condition y = 4
at x = 1, we can solve it as follows:
1. Separate variables:
dy √
√ = x dx
y
2. Integrate both sides:

√ dy = x dx
y

3. Solve for y:

1 3/2 C
y= x +

4. Use the initial condition to find C:

1 3/2 C
4= ·1 +

* Given the differential equation:

dy
= −y 2 · x · (x2 + 2)4
dx
We can separate variables and integrate both sides:
1
dy = −x · (x2 + 2)4 dx
y2
Integrating: Z Z
1
dy = − x · (x2 + 2)4 dx
y2
This gives:

Solving for y:
1
y= 1
5 · (x2 + 2)5 − C
Applying the initial condition y(0) = 1:
1
1= 1
5 · (02 + 2)5 − C

C= 1 −1

So the solution to the initial value problem is:

y= 1 27
5 · (x2 + 2)5 + 32
