How to solve separable differential equations?


Separable differential equations.
That’s the focus for this entry, but for most, it’s a focus they’d rather pass over.
Without a doubt, the place where our students hit heavy friction for the first time in their studies is in the topic of Differential Equations.
Our mission is to help you smooth that out.
In this video, we dive into a FE Exam Practice Problem in the subject of Mathematics, specifically, dealing with how to solve Separable Differential Equations.
Key Definition
What are SEPARABLE DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS?
A SEPARABLE DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION is a form of nonlinear first order differential equation that can be written in the form:
- N(y)*dy/dx = M(x)
With this, we can rewrite the given SEPARABLE DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION as:
- N(y)dy = M(x)dx
This allows us to integrate both sides and move forward with defining the IMPLICIT SOLUTION.
To obtain the EXPLICIT SOLUTION we must rearrange so that the SOLUTION is in the form:
- y = y(x)
So how can I solve separable differential equation?
