For the above figure, the formula is,

x² = WY (YV + WY)

WY = 5
YV = 12

Substituting in the above formula,

x² = 5 x (12 + 5)
x² = 5 x 17 = 85
x² = 85
⇒ x = √85 = 9.21954 = 9.220

I need help with this homogeneous equation

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

$ln [1 - (\frac{y}{x} )^{2} ] + ln x + c = 0$ . This is the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The homogeneous differential equation is given by

$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{x^{2} + y^{2} }{2xy}$

⇒ $\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1 + (\frac{y}{x} )^{2} }{2(\frac{y}{x} )}$ ........ (1)

Now to solve this differential equation we assume that y = vx where v is another variable.

So, differentiating with respect to x we get $\frac{dy}{dx} = v + x \frac{dv}{dx}$

Therefore, the above equation (1) becomes

$v + x \frac{dv}{dx} = \frac{1 + v^{2} }{2v}$ {Since $v = \frac{y}{x}$ }

⇒ $x\frac{dv}{dx} = \frac{1 + v^{2} - 2v^{2} }{2v}$

⇒ $x\frac{dv}{dx} = \frac{1 - v^{2}}{2v}$

⇒ $\frac{2v}{1 - v^{2} } dv = \frac{dx}{x}$ {By separation of variables}

Now, integrating both sides we get,

$\int {\frac{2v}{ 1- v^{2}}} \, dv = \int {\frac{dx}{x} } \, dx$

⇒ $- \int {\frac{d(1 - v^{2} )}{1 - v^{2}}} = \int {\frac{dx}{x} }$

⇒ $- ln (1 - v^{2}) = ln x + c$ {Where c is the integration constant}

⇒ $ln [1 - (\frac{y}{x} )^{2} ] + ln x + c = 0$ (Answer)

Product of four in the decreased by 14 times 6 gives 18

fenix001 [56]

I'm guessing we are solving for a unknown variable? This question is hard to understand, if you are not solving for a unknown variable than tell me in the comments and ill fix my answer

(X*4-14)*6=18

If I am correct your answer is 4.25

(4.25x4-14)*6=18

If I did the problem wrong than tell me. To me this question makes no sense so i'm not sure if I did it wrong.
