Questions and Answers

What is the condition for the ODE (ax + by)dx + (kx + ly)dy = 0 to be exact?

a = -k, b = -l

a = l, b = k (correct)

a = -l, b = -k

a = k, b = l

What is the solution to the ODE 2xyex dx + ex dy = 0, y(0) = 2?

y = e^(-2x)

y = e^(2x)

y = 2e^x

y = 2e^(-x) (correct)

Reducible to exact

Exact

Non-linear

Linear (correct)

How do you determine whether a first-order ODE is exact or reducible to exact?

By checking if the given ODE can be written in the form M(x,y)dx + N(x,y)dy = 0, and then verifying that (∂M/∂y) = (∂N/∂x). Signup and view all the answers

What is the significance of the integrating factor in solving linear ODEs?

When can an initial value problem (IVP) be guaranteed to have a unique solution?

An IVP is guaranteed to have a unique solution if it satisfies the conditions of the existence and uniqueness theorem, which involves the continuity and Lipschitz continuity of the function defining the ODE. Signup and view all the answers

What is the difference between a linear ODE and a reducible to linear ODE?

A linear ODE is of the form dy/dx + P(x)y = Q(x), whereas a reducible to linear ODE can be transformed into a linear ODE through a substitution or other transformation. Signup and view all the answers

How do you solve a reducible to linear ODE?
