1. Let a and b be coefficients such that

Combining the fractions on the right gives



so that

2. a. The given ODE is separable as

Using the result of part (1), integrating both sides gives

Given that y = 1 when x = 1, we find

so the particular solution to the ODE is

We can solve this explicitly for y :


![\ln|y| = \ln\left|\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{5x}{2x+3}}\right|](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cln%7Cy%7C%20%3D%20%5Cln%5Cleft%7C%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cdfrac%7B5x%7D%7B2x%2B3%7D%7D%5Cright%7C)
![\boxed{y = \sqrt[3]{\dfrac{5x}{2x+3}}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cboxed%7By%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cdfrac%7B5x%7D%7B2x%2B3%7D%7D%7D)
2. b. When x = 9, we get
![y = \sqrt[3]{\dfrac{45}{21}} = \sqrt[3]{\dfrac{15}7} \approx \boxed{1.29}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cdfrac%7B45%7D%7B21%7D%7D%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cdfrac%7B15%7D7%7D%20%5Capprox%20%5Cboxed%7B1.29%7D)
A coordinate grid is very handy when it comes to drawing geometric shapes such as triangles. Let's create an example triangle ABC with the locations
A = (2,3)
B = (9,5)
C = (4,-10)
Plot those points and connect the dots. That forms triangle ABC. We can translate triangle ABC to any other position we want. Let's say we want to shift it 2 units to the left. That means we subtract 2 from each x coordinate while keeping the y coordinates the same. Therefore
A' = (0, 3)
B' = (7, 5)
C' = (2,-10)
Plot triangle A'B'C' and you should see that this is a shifted copy of triangle ABC.
The rotation rules are a bit more complicated, and it depends where you place the center of rotation; however, it is possible to use coordinate math like done above.
Luckily the reflection rules over the x or y axis are fairly simple. If we reflect over the x axis, then we flip the sign of the y coordinate. Or if we wanted to reflect over the y axis, we flip the sign of the x coordinate.
Example: A' = (0,3) reflects over the x axis to get A'' = (0, -3)

Put it like that and there’s your constant
If you were to solve for y, it would be 2. Therefore 2y would be 4.
