the differential equation (dy/dx)+p(x)y=Q(x) yn is
Answer (1)
Hey,
An equation of the form dxdy+Py=Qun where P and Qare functions ofx alone or constants, is called
Bernoulli's equation.
Divide both the sides by yn, we get
y−ndxdy+Py−n+1=Q Put
y−n+1=z⇒(−n+1)y−ndxdy=dxdz.
The equation reduces to 1−n1dxdz+Pz=Q⇒dxdz+(1−n)Pz=Q
Which is linear in z and can be solved in the usual manner.
So the substitution is z=v=yn−11
