Study Notes
Separable Differential Equations
- A separable differential equation is a nonlinear first-order differential equation that can be written in a specific form, where all y's are multiplied by the derivative and all x's are on the other side of the equal sign.
Solving Separable Differential Equations
- To solve a separable differential equation, integrate both sides with respect to x.
Solution Types
- An implicit solution is a solution that is not in the form y = y(x).
- An explicit solution is a solution in the form y = y(x).
Interval of Validity
- The interval of validity is the range of the independent variable (x) on which the solution is valid.
- To determine the interval of validity, avoid division by zero, complex numbers, and logarithms.
