Rearrange the ODE as
Take
, so that 
.
Supposing that
, we have 
, from which it follows that
So we can write the ODE as
which is linear in
. Multiplying both sides by 
, we have
![\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\bigg[e^{x^2}u\bigg]=x^3e^{x^2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7B%5Cmathrm%20d%7D%7B%5Cmathrm%20dx%7D%5Cbigg%5Be%5E%7Bx%5E2%7Du%5Cbigg%5D%3Dx%5E3e%5E%7Bx%5E2%7D)
Integrate both sides with respect to
:
![\displaystyle\int\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\bigg[e^{x^2}u\bigg]\,\mathrm dx=\int x^3e^{x^2}\,\mathrm dx](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdisplaystyle%5Cint%5Cfrac%7B%5Cmathrm%20d%7D%7B%5Cmathrm%20dx%7D%5Cbigg%5Be%5E%7Bx%5E2%7Du%5Cbigg%5D%5C%2C%5Cmathrm%20dx%3D%5Cint%20x%5E3e%5E%7Bx%5E2%7D%5C%2C%5Cmathrm%20dx)
Substitute
, so that 
. Then
Integrate the right hand side by parts using
You should end up with
and provided that we restrict, we can write
