How do I find the possible values of x

Among 81678167 cases of heart pacemaker malfunctions, 457457 were found to be caused by firmware, which is software programmed

(Note: This seems when question was pasted from its source the in text box, the numbers were pasted twice. Solving the question considering only one occurence of number i.e using 8167 instead of 81678167. However, method will be same regardless of the numbers listed)

Part a)
Total number of cases = 8167
Number of Malfunctions due to firmware = 457

Probability that a malfunction is because of firmware = $\frac{457}{8167}$

Probability that the malfunction is not because of firmware = 1 - Probability that a malfunction is because of firmware = $1- \frac{457}{8167}= \frac{7710}{8167}$

Probability of selecting 3 pacemakers without a malfunction because of firmware = $( \frac{7710}{8167} )^{3} = 0.841$

Part b)
The probability of selecting 3 pacemakers without any malfunction because of firmware is 0.841, which is a high probability. So we can say, yes this procedure is very likely to result in entire batch being accepted. The probability near 1 is considered a very higher probability for an event and the probability near 0 is considered a very lower probability for an event.

(6x-5y+4)dy+(y-2x-1)dx=0

Len [333]

(6x - 5y + 4) dy + (y - 2x - 1) dx = 0

(6x - 5y + 4) dy = (2x - y + 1) dx

dy/dx = (2x - y + 1) / (6x - 5y + 4)

Let X = x - a and Y = y - b. We want to find constants a and b such that

dY/dX = (a rational function)

where the numerator and denominator on the right side are free of constant terms. Substituting x and y in the equation, we have

dY/dX = (2 (X + a) - (Y + b) + 1) / (6 (X + a) - 5 (Y + b) + 4)

dY/dX = (2X - Y + 2a - b + 1) / (6X - 5Y + 6a - 5b + 4)

Then we solve for a and b in the system,

2a - b + 1 = 0

6a - 5b + 4 = 0

==> a = -1/4 and b = 1/2

With these constants, the equation reduces to

dY/dX = (2X - Y) / (6X - 5Y)

Now substitute Y = VX and dY/dX = X dV/dX + V :

X dV/dX + V = (2X - VX) / (6X - 5VX)

The equation becomes separable after some simplification:

X dV/dX + V = (2 - V) / (6 - 5V)

X dV/dX = (2 - V) / (6 - 5V) - V

X dV/dX = (2 - V - (6 - 5V)) / (6 - 5V)

X dV/dX = (4V - 4) / (6 - 5V)

- (5V - 6) / (4V - 4) dV = 1/X dX

Integrate both sides:

-5/4 V + 1/4 ln|4V - 4| = ln|X| + C

Extract a constant from the logarithm on the left:

-5/4 V + 1/4 (ln(4) + ln|V - 1|) = ln|X| + C

-5/4 V + 1/4 ln|V - 1| = ln|X| + C

-5V + ln|V - 1| = 4 ln|X| + C

Get this back in terms of Y :

-5Y/X + ln|Y/X - 1| = 4 ln|X| + C

Now get the solution in terms of y and x :

-5 (y - 1/2)/(x + 1/4) + ln|(y - 1/2)/(x + 1/4) - 1| = 4 ln|x + 1/4| + C

With some manipulation of constants and logarithms, and a bit of algebra, we can rewrite this solution as

-5 (4y - 2)/(4x + 1) + ln|(4y - 4x - 3)/(4x + 1)| = 4 ln|x + 1/4| + 4 ln(4) + C

-5 (4y - 2)/(4x + 1) + ln|(4y - 4x - 3)/(4x + 1)| = 4 ln|4x + 1| + C

-5 (4y - 2)/(4x + 1) + ln|4y - 4x - 3| - ln|4x + 1| = 4 ln|4x + 1| + C

-5 (4y - 2)/(4x + 1) + ln|4y - 4x - 3| = 5 ln|4x + 1| + C
