Answer:

Exact form : x = +_2 squareroot 11+5

Decimal form : x=11.63324958...,-1.63324958...

Step-by-step explanation: Use the formula (b/2)^2 in order to create a new term. Solve for x by using the term to complete the square.

I hope this helps you out! :)

Solve the initial-value problem<br><br> y' = x^4 - \frac{1}{x}y, y(1) = 1.

natta225 [31]

The ODE is linear:

$y'=x^4-\dfrac yx$

$y'+\dfrac yx=x^4$

Multiplying both sides by $x$ gives

$xy'+y=x^5$

Notice that the left side can be condensed as the derivative of a product:

$(xy)'=x^5$

Integrating both sides with respect to $x$ yields

$xy=\dfrac{x^6}6+C$

$\implies y(x)=\dfrac{x^5}6+\dfrac Cx$

Since $y(1)=1$ ,

$1=\dfrac16+C\implies C=\dfrac56$

so that

$\boxed{y(x)=\dfrac{x^5}6+\dfrac5{6x}}$
