Worked solution

Ans: The given differential equation is:

$\frac{dy}{dx}+2y=\sin x$

It is a linear differential equation of the form $\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\text{+py=Q}$, with:

$p=2$ 

$Q=\sin x$ 

Calculate the integrating factor:

$I.F={{e}^{\int pdx}}$ 

$\Rightarrow I.F={{e}^{\int 2dx}}$ 

$\Rightarrow I.F={{e}^{2x}}$ 

General solution is of the form:

$y\left( I.F \right)=\int \left( Q\times I.F \right)dx+C$ 

$y{{e}^{2x}}=\int \sin x\left( {{e}^{2x}} \right)dx+C$ 

\[\Rightarrow y{{e}^{2x}}=I+C\,\,\,\left( I=\int \sin x\left( {{e}^{2x}} \right)dx \right)\] ……(1)

\[I=\int \sin x\left( {{e}^{2x}} \right)dx\] 

$\Rightarrow I=\left( \sin x \right)\int {{e}^{2x}}dx-\int \left( \left( \sin x \right)'\int {{e}^{2x}}dx \right)dx$ 

$\Rightarrow I=\frac{{{e}^{2x}}}{2}\sin x-\int \left( \cos x\left( \frac{{{e}^{2x}}}{2} \right) \right)dx$ 

$\Rightarrow I=\frac{{{e}^{2x}}}{2}\sin x-\frac{1}{2}\left[ \cos x\int {{e}^{2x}}dx-\int \left( \left( \cos x \right)'\left( \int {{e}^{2x}}dx \right) \right)dx \right]$ 

$\Rightarrow I=\frac{{{e}^{2x}}}{2}\sin x-\frac{1}{2}\left[ \frac{{{e}^{2x}}}{2}\cos x+\frac{1}{2}\int {{e}^{2x}}\left( \sin x \right)dx \right]$ 

$\Rightarrow I=\frac{{{e}^{2x}}}{2}\sin x-\frac{1}{2}\left[ \frac{{{e}^{2x}}}{2}\cos x+\frac{1}{2}I \right]$ 

$\Rightarrow I=\frac{{{e}^{2x}}}{2}\sin x-\frac{{{e}^{2x}}}{4}\cos x-\frac{1}{4}I$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{5}{4}I=\frac{{{e}^{2x}}}{2}\sin x-\frac{{{e}^{2x}}}{4}\cos x$ 

\[\Rightarrow I=\frac{2{{e}^{2x}}}{5}\sin x-\frac{{{e}^{2x}}}{5}\cos x\] 

\[\Rightarrow I=\frac{{{e}^{2x}}}{5}\left[ 2\sin x-\cos x \right]\] 

Back substituting $\text{I}$ in expression (1):

\[\Rightarrow y{{e}^{2x}}=\frac{{{e}^{2x}}}{5}\left[ 2\sin x-\cos x \right]+C\,\] 

\[\Rightarrow y=\frac{1}{5}\left( 2\sin x-\cos x \right)+C{{e}^{-2x}}\] 

The general solution for given differential equation is \[\text{y=}\frac{\text{1}}{\text{5}}\left( \text{2sinx-cosx} \right)\text{+C}{{\text{e}}^{\text{-2x}}}\].

Show solutionHide solution
Worked solution

Ans: The given differential equation is:

$\left( x+y \right)\frac{dy}{dx}=1$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{x+y}$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{dx}{dy}=x+y$ 

$\Rightarrow \frac{dx}{dy}-x=y$ 

It is differential equation of the form $\frac{\text{dx}}{\text{dy}}\text{+px=Q}$, with:

$\Rightarrow x\left( {{e}^{-y}} \right)=\int \left( y \right)\left( {{e}^{-y}} \right)dy+C$ 

$\Rightarrow x{{e}^{-y}}=I+C\,\,\left( I=\int y{{e}^{-y}}dy \right)$ ……(1) 

Solving the integral $\text{I}$:

$I=\int y{{e}^{-y}}dy$ 

$\Rightarrow I=y\int {{e}^{-y}}dy-\int \left( \left( y \right)'\int {{e}^{-y}}dy \right)dy$ 

$\Rightarrow I=-y{{e}^{-y}}+\int \left( \left( 1 \right){{e}^{-y}} \right)dy$ 

$\Rightarrow I=-y{{e}^{-y}}+\int {{e}^{-y}}dy$

$\Rightarrow I=-y{{e}^{-y}}-{{e}^{-y}}$  

Back substitute $\text{I}$ in expression (1):

$x{{e}^{-y}}=I+C$ 

\[\Rightarrow x{{e}^{-y}}=-y{{e}^{-y}}-{{e}^{-y}}+C\] 

\[\Rightarrow x=-y-1+C{{e}^{y}}\]
