Short Answer

Use the method discussed under “Homogeneous Equations” to solve problems 9-16. dydx=y(lny-lnx+1)x

Homogeneous equation for the given equation is y=xeCx.

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1: General form of Homogeneous equation

If the right-hand side of the equation dydx=fx,y can be expressed as a function of the ratio yx alone, then we say the equation is homogeneous.

Step 2: Evaluate the given equation

Given, dydx=y(lny-lnx+1)x.

Evaluate it.

Since, lnMN=ln M-ln N

localid="1655201008520" dydx=y(lny-lnx+1)xdydx=y(lnyx+1)x=yxlnyx+1=yxlnyx+yx

Step 3: Substitution method

Let us take v=yx.

Then y=vx.

By Differentiating,

dydx=v+xdvdxvln v+v=v+xdvdxvln v=xdvdx1vln vdv=1xdx

Step 4: Integrate the equation

Now, integrate on both sides.

1vln vdv=1xdx1vln vdv=lnx+C1

Integrate 1vln vdv separately.

Let us take w=ln v. Then, dv=v dw

Now,

1vwvdw=1wdw=lnw

Substitute w=ln v.

1vln vdv=lnw=lnln v

Then,

lnln v=lnx+C1ln v=elnx+C1ln v=xeC1ln v=xC2v=exC2v=exC

Substitute v=yx

localid="1655200766733" yx=eCxy=xeCx

Therefore, Homogeneous equation for the given equation is y=xeCx.
