Short Answer

In Problems 11–14, solve the related phase plane differential equation for the given system. Then sketch by hand several representative trajectories (with their flow arrows).

dxdt=(y-x)(y-1)dydt=(x-y)(x-1)

The solution is (y-1)2+(x-1)2=c.

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1: Find phase plane equation

Here the system is:

dxdt=(y-x)(y-1)dydt=(x-y)(x-1)

And the phase plane equation is:

dydx=(x-y)(x-1)(y-x)(y-1)dydx=1-xy-1

Step 2: Solve the equation

Here the equation is dydx=1-xy-1.

Solving by variable separating. Then,

y-1dy=-x-1dxy-12+x-12=c

Since the solutions are centered at (1,1). And line y = x.

Step 3: Sketch some trajectories.

Therefore, the solution is (y-1)2+(x-1)2=c.
