Here, we show you a step-by-step solved example of separable differential equations. This solution was automatically generated by our smart calculator:
Factoring by $y$
Group the terms of the differential equation. Move the terms of the $y$ variable to the left side, and the terms of the $x$ variable to the right side of the equality
Multiply the fraction by the term
Any expression multiplied by $1$ is equal to itself
Simplify the expression $\left(x^2-4\right)\frac{1}{x+4}dx$
Integrate both sides of the differential equation, the left side with respect to $y$, and the right side with respect to $x$
The integral of the inverse of the lineal function is given by the following formula, $\displaystyle\int\frac{1}{x}dx=\ln(x)$
Solve the integral $\int\frac{1}{y}dy$ and replace the result in the differential equation
Divide $x^2-4$ by $x+4$
Resulting polynomial
Expand the integral $\int\left(x-4+\frac{12}{x+4}\right)dx$ into $3$ integrals using the sum rule for integrals, to then solve each integral separately
We can solve the integral $\int\frac{12}{x+4}dx$ by applying integration by substitution method (also called U-Substitution). First, we must identify a section within the integral with a new variable (let's call it $u$), which when substituted makes the integral easier. We see that $x+4$ it's a good candidate for substitution. Let's define a variable $u$ and assign it to the choosen part
Now, in order to rewrite $dx$ in terms of $du$, we need to find the derivative of $u$. We need to calculate $du$, we can do that by finding the derivative of the equation above
Substituting $u$ and $dx$ in the integral and simplify
The integral of a constant is equal to the constant times the integral's variable
The integral of the inverse of the lineal function is given by the following formula, $\displaystyle\int\frac{1}{x}dx=\ln(x)$
Replace $u$ with the value that we assigned to it in the beginning: $x+4$
Applying the power rule for integration, $\displaystyle\int x^n dx=\frac{x^{n+1}}{n+1}$, where $n$ represents a number or constant function, in this case $n=1$
As the integral that we are solving is an indefinite integral, when we finish integrating we must add the constant of integration $C$
Solve the integral $\int\frac{x^2-4}{x+4}dx$ and replace the result in the differential equation
