Separable Differential Equations
Definition: A separable differential equation can be expressed
as the product of a function of x and a function of y.
𝑓 𝑦 𝑑𝑦 = 𝑔 𝑥 𝑑𝑥
Steps:
1. Separate the variables. Use cross multiplication and
properties of equality.
2. Integrate both sides of the equation. (General Solution)
3. Substitute the given values to determine the value of C, the
constant of integration.
4. Solve for y. (Particular Solution) https://www.slideserve.com/emil/separable-differential-
