dy/dx - 1 = xe^ (y-x). Let y-x=t. dt/dx = xe? e? dt=xdx.
-e? = x²/2+C. y (0)=0⇒t=0⇒-1=C.
-e^ (x-y) = x²/2-1. y=x-ln (1-x²/2).
y'=1+x/ (1-x²/2)=0 ⇒ x=-1. Min value at x=-1.
y (-1)=-1-ln (1/2) = -1+ln2. This differs from solution.

Let tan?¹x = θ ⇒ x=tanθ ⇒ sinθ = x/√(1+x²)
y = (x/√(1+x²)) + (1/√(1+x²)) = (x+1)/√(1+x²). This is not f(x).
Let's follow the solution:
y = (x+1)²/(1+x²) - 1 = (2x)/(1+x²) = f(x)
Now dy/dx = (1/2√y) * f'(x) = .
The solution seems to take y as a different function. Let's assume y = (x/(√(1+x²))) + (1/√(1+x

dy/dx + 2tanx · y = 2sinx
I.F. = e^ (∫2tanxdx) = sec²x
Solution is y·sec²x = ∫2sinx·sec²xdx + C
ysec²x = 2secx + C
0 = 2·2 + c ⇒ c = -4
ysec²x = 2secx - 4
y (π/4) = √2 - 2

- π 2 , 0

At d y 1 - y 2 + d x 1 - x 2 = 0 ⇒ s i n - 1 ? y + s i n - 1 ? x = c

Hence x = 1 2 , y = 3 2 ⇒ c = π 2 ⇒ s i n - 1 ? y = c o s - 1 ? x

f ' ( x ) = a ( x + 1 ) ( x - 1 ) x 2

f ' ( x ) = a x 4 - x 2 f

f ( x ) = a x 5 5 - a x 3 5 + C
? f ( 0 ) = 0 ⇒ c = 0

l i m x → 0 ? f ( x ) x 3 = 2

⇒ a = - 6

Minima at ∴ f ' ( x ) = - 6 x 2 - 1 x 2

Maxima at x = - 1

sec y dy/dx = 2sinxcosy.
sec²y dy = 2sinx dx.
tan y = -2cosx + C.
y (0)=0 ⇒ 0=-2+C ⇒ C=2.
tan y = 2-2cosx.
y' = (-2sinx)/sec²y.
5y' (π/2) = 5 (2sin (π/2)/sec² (π/2)
sec²y dy/dx = 2sinx.
y' (π/2)? At x=π/2, tan y = 2. sec²y = 1+tan²y = 5.
5 (2sin (π/2) = 5 (2)=10.

xdy - ydx = x³cosxdx
(xdy-ydx)/x² = xcosxdx
d (y/x) = xcosxdx
y/x = ∫xcosxdx = xsinx - ∫sinxdx = xsinx + cosx + c
y = x²sinx + xcosx + cx
y (π) = 0 + π (-1) + cπ = 0 ⇒ c = 1
y = x²sinx + xcosx + x
y (π/2) = (π/2)² (1) + 0 + π/2 = π²/4 + π/2

dy/dx = e^ (3x+4y) = e³? e?
e? dy = e³? dx
∫e? dy = ∫e³? dx
-e? /4 = e³? /3 + C
y (0)=0 ⇒ -1/4 = 1/3 + C ⇒ C = -7/12.
-e? /4 = e³? /3 - 7/12
e? = (7 - 4e³? )/3
y = (-1/4)ln (7-4e³? )/3)
x = -2/3 ln2 = ln (2? ²/³) = ln (1/4¹/³)
e³? = e^ (ln (1/4) = 1/4.
y = (-1/4)ln (7-1)/3) = (-1/4)ln2.
α = -1/4.

Given d y d x = x y 2 + y x = y 2 + y x

OR d y d x − y x = y 2       O R       1 y 2 d y d x − 1 x . 1 y = 1 . . . . . . . . . ( i )

=> x y = − x 2 2 + c . . . . . . . . . . ( i i )      

Since curve intersect x + 2y = 4 at x = -2 then y = 3 so

From (ii) − 2 3 = − 2 + c         O R     c = 2 − 2 3 = 4 3

put x = 3, then 3 y = − 9 2 + 4 3 = − 1 9 6

⇒ y = − 1 8 1 9
