then integration yields


Example 10 __

If (ln y) , and y = e when x = 1, find the value of y greater than 1 that


corresponds to x = e^4.


SOLUTION:


Separating, we get . We integrate:


Using y = e when x = 1, we have , or . This is true only if C = 1,
and we choose the positive square root. Hence, . When x = e^4 ,

.


Example 11 __

Find the general solution of the differential equation .


SOLUTION:


We rewrite.


Taking antiderivatives yields eu = ev + C, or u = ln(ev + c).
