—————

Solve the initial value problem:

   dy
———  =  2xy²,      y = 2,  when x = – 1.
   dx


Separate the variables in the equation above:

\mathsf{\dfrac{dy}{y^2}=2x\,dx}\\\\
\mathsf{y^{-2}\,dy=2x\,dx}


Integrate both sides:

\mathsf{\displaystyle\int\!y^{-2}\,dy=\int\!2x\,dx}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{y^{-2+1}}{-2+1}=2\cdot \dfrac{x^{1+1}}{1+1}+C_1}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{y^{-1}}{-1}=\diagup\hspace{-7}2\cdot \dfrac{x^2}{\diagup\hspace{-7}2}+C_1}\\\\\\
\mathsf{-\,\dfrac{1}{y}=x^2+C_1}

\mathsf{\dfrac{1}{y}=-(x^2+C_1)}


Take the reciprocal of both sides, and then you have

\mathsf{y=-\,\dfrac{1}{x^2+C_1}\qquad\qquad where~C_1~is~a~constant\qquad (i)}


In order to find the value of  C₁  , just plug in the equation above those known values for  x  and  y, then solve it for  C₁:

y = 2,  when  x = – 1. So,

\mathsf{2=-\,\dfrac{1}{1^2+C_1}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{2=-\,\dfrac{1}{1+C_1}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{-\,\dfrac{1}{2}=1+C_1}\\\\\\
\mathsf{-\,\dfrac{1}{2}-1=C_1}\\\\\\
\mathsf{-\,\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{2}{2}=C_1}

\mathsf{C_1=-\,\dfrac{3}{2}}


Substitute that for  C₁  into (i), and you have

\mathsf{y=-\,\dfrac{1}{x^2-\frac{3}{2}}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{y=-\,\dfrac{1}{x^2-\frac{3}{2}}\cdot \dfrac{2}{2}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{y=-\,\dfrac{2}{2x^2-3}}


So  y(– 2)  is

\mathsf{y\big|_{x=-2}=-\,\dfrac{2}{2\cdot (-2)^2-3}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{y\big|_{x=-2}=-\,\dfrac{2}{2\cdot 4-3}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{y\big|_{x=-2}=-\,\dfrac{2}{8-3}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{y\big|_{x=-2}=-\,\dfrac{2}{5}}\quad\longleftarrow\quad\textsf{this is the answer.}


I hope this helps. =)
