CHAPTER 4. SEPARABLE FIRST-ORDER


DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS

COURSE CODE: KMÜ 237


COURSE TITLE: ENGINEERING MATHEMATICS

COURSE TEXTBOOK: Bronson, R., Costa, G., "Schaum's Outlines Differential


Equations" 3rd Ed., McGraw-Hill Companies, USA, 2006
4. Separable First-Order Differential
Equations
General Solution: The solution to the first-order separable
differential equation
𝐴 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 + 𝐵 𝑦 𝑑𝑦 = 0
is ∫ 𝐴 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 + ∫ 𝐵 𝑦 𝑑𝑦 = ∫𝑜
where c represents an arbitrary constants.
Solutions to the Initial-Value Problem:
The solution to the initial-value problem
𝐴 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 + 𝐵 𝑦 𝑑𝑦 = 0
y( x ) = y
0 0

can be obtained, as usual, by first using


ò A( x)dx + ò B( y )dy = c
to solve the differential equation and then applying the
initial condition directly to evaluate c.
Alternatively, the solution to
A( x)dx + B( y )dy = 0 y( x ) = y
0 0

can be obtained from


x y

ò A( x)dx + ò B( y )dy
x0 y0

Reduction of Homogeneous Equations
The homogeneous differential equation
dy
= f ( x, y )
dx
having the property that f (tx, ty) = f ( x, y)
can be transformed into a separable equation by making
the substitution y = xv
dy dv
along with its corresponding derivative =v+x
dx dx
The resulting equation in the variables v and x is solved as
a separable differential equation; the required solution to
dy
= f ( x, y )
dx
is obtained by back substitution.
dy
Alternatively, the solution to = f ( x, y )
dx
can be obtained by rewriting the differential equation as
dx 1
=
dy f ( x, y )
and then substituting x = yu
and the corresponding derivative
dx du
=u+ y
dy dy
into
dx 1
=
dy f ( x, y )
After simplifying, the resulting differential equation will
be one with variables (this time, u and y) separable.
