A mountain climber ascends 800 feet per hour from his original position. After 6 hours, his final position is 11,600 feet above

sea level. Find the climber's position.

<span>To find the beginning position, we need to know how many feet the climber has ascended in the 6-hour time frame. At the rate of 800 feet per hour, this would total to 4,800 feet in 6 hours (800 * 6). Subtracting this amount from the final position would give the elevation at the beginning of the ascent: (11600 - 4800) = 6,800 feet above sea level to begin.</span>

Find all the solutions for the equation:

Contact [7]

$2y^2\,\mathrm dx-(x+y)^2\,\mathrm dy=0$

Divide both sides by $x^2\,\mathrm dx$ to get

$2\left(\dfrac yx\right)^2-\left(1+\dfrac yx\right)^2\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=0$

$\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{2\left(\frac yx\right)^2}{\left(1+\frac yx\right)^2}$

Substitute $v(x)=\dfrac{y(x)}x$ , so that $\dfrac{\mathrm dv(x)}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{x\frac{\mathrm dy(x)}{\mathrm dx}-y(x)}{x^2}$ . Then

$x\dfrac{\mathrm dv}{\mathrm dx}+v=\dfrac{2v^2}{(1+v)^2}$

$x\dfrac{\mathrm dv}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{2v^2-v(1+v)^2}{(1+v)^2}$

$x\dfrac{\mathrm dv}{\mathrm dx}=-\dfrac{v(1+v^2)}{(1+v)^2}$

The remaining ODE is separable. Separating the variables gives

$\dfrac{(1+v)^2}{v(1+v^2)}\,\mathrm dv=-\dfrac{\mathrm dx}x$

Integrate both sides. On the left, split up the integrand into partial fractions.

$\dfrac{(1+v)^2}{v(1+v^2)}=\dfrac{v^2+2v+1}{v(v^2+1)}=\dfrac av+\dfrac{bv+c}{v^2+1}$

$\implies v^2+2v+1=a(v^2+1)+(bv+c)v$

$\implies v^2+2v+1=(a+b)v^2+cv+a$

$\implies a=1,b=0,c=2$

Then

$\displaystyle\int\frac{(1+v)^2}{v(1+v^2)}\,\mathrm dv=\int\left(\frac1v+\frac2{v^2+1}\right)\,\mathrm dv=\ln|v|+2\tan^{-1}v$

On the right, we have

$\displaystyle-\int\frac{\mathrm dx}x=-\ln|x|+C$

Solving for $v(x)$ explicitly is unlikely to succeed, so we leave the solution in implicit form,

$\ln|v(x)|+2\tan^{-1}v(x)=-\ln|x|+C$

and finally solve in terms of $y(x)$ by replacing $v(x)=\dfrac{y(x)}x$ :

$\ln\left|\frac{y(x)}x\right|+2\tan^{-1}\dfrac{y(x)}x=-\ln|x|+C$

$\ln|y(x)|-\ln|x|+2\tan^{-1}\dfrac{y(x)}x=-\ln|x|+C$

$\boxed{\ln|y(x)|+2\tan^{-1}\dfrac{y(x)}x=C}$
