Question: 1. Solve the following equations with the given initial conditions:

1. y ' - 2 y = 0, y(1) - 3

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

this y(1) - 3 I think should be an = sign.

I'm going to let y(1) be y(x), and sub y' = dy(x) / dx

dy(x)/dx = 2y(x)

2 = dy(x)/dx/y(x)

now integrate each side wrt x

2x + c = log(y(x))

simplify; y(x) = e^(2x + c)

y(x) = ce^(2x) now substitute y(x) = 3

3 = ce^2

solve for c = 3/e^2 which is roughly 0.41

putting c back into the y(x) equation

y(x) = (3/e^2)(e^2x) = 3e^x

@&

y = 3 e^x, when substituted into the given equation, gives us

y ' - 2 y = 4 e^x,

not

y ' - 2 y = 0.

Question: 2. t^2 y ' - 9 y = 0, y(1) = 2.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

substitute y' = dy(t)/dt and separate the equation to where we can integrate it simply enough.

t^2(dy(t)/dt) = 9y(t)

9/t^2 dt = dy(t)/dt / y(t) dt

integrate this wrt t.

-9/t + c = log(y(t))

y(t) = e^(-9/t) + c

now sub y(t) = 2 in to solve for the constant

2 = c* e^-9

c = 2/e^-9 simplified. c = 2e^9 roughly 16,206.16

now you could put that back into the y(t) equation.

y(t) = 2e^(-9/t +9)

Good.

You should also be able to solve this as a linear homogeneous equation of form y ' + p(t) y = 0.

*********************************************

Question: 3. (t^2 + t) y' + (2t + 1) y = 0, y(0) = 1.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

sub y' as dy(t)/dt and fill in, separate to integrate the easiest, there is a lot of typing so i'll skip to my integrand

int( dy(t) / dt / y(t) ) dt = - int( (2t+1) / (t^2 + t) ) dt ------- both sides have the form of 1/u du = log u

becomes log(y(t)) = - log(t) - log(t+1)

y(t) = -e^t - e^(t+1+c) --------- this might just combine 1 and c to just c, anyways,

y(0) = -e^0 - e^(1 + c)

1 = -1 - ce^1

c = 2e^1

fill into y(t) equation to get ( i think)

y(t) = -e^t - 2e^(t+1)

Your approach would work but you haven't integrated (2 t + 1) / (t^2 + t) correctly. The result is ln | t^2 + 1 |.

However you also need to solve this using the technique of linear homogeneous equations, which in fact requires the same integral with a slightly different concept.

*********************************************

Question: 4. y ' + sin(3 t) y = 0, y(0) = 2.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

sub y' to dy(t)/dt and fill in, separate to integrate easily, lots of typing, skip to integrand.

int ( dy(t)/dt/y(t) ) dt = - int ( sin(3t) ) dt ----- both again have the form int 1/u du = logu

becomes

log(y(t)) = 1/3cos(3t) + c

y(t) = 1/3e^(cos(3t) + c)---------- I think, my 1/3 might be incorrect

y(0) = 1/3ce(cos(0))

2 = 1/3ce^1 c = 6/e^1

fill back into the y(t) equation

if my math is correct in multiplying my constant with e that is.........

y(t) = 2/e^1 * e^(cos(3t))

???????????????? I'm getting the hang of this, just not completely sure of my multiplication near the last couple steps.

Your constant isn't right, because e^0 = 1, not e. Fix that and your solution will be OK.

Question: 5. Match each equation with one of the direction fields shown below, and explain why you chose as you did.

y ' - t^2 y = 0

****

#$&*

y ' - y = 0

****

I'm choosing graph A for this, because the derivative is = to y, which is the rise over the run of y. This graph is the only one that represents an exponential change.

#$&*

y' - y / t = 0

****

This graph is similar to a y=x graph. when the change in y wrt t is equal to t on the right, it will equal itself. so this graph should resemble a straight line, which is why i'm choosing graph C

#$&*

y ' - t y = 0

****

graph F, because this is an opposite wave pattern than graph B, the sign is just reversed, not sure about this.

#$&*

y ' + t y = 0

****

I'm choosing graph B for this, because it changes much more dramatically than graph A. It looks to be asymptotic.

#$&*

A

B

C

D

E

F

6. The graph of y ' + b y = 0 passes through the points (1, 2) and (3, 8). What is the value of b?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

the slope of this graph is 3. change in y wrt change in x

by doing like before, and sub y' with dy(x)/dx and separating to integrate.

-bx + c = log y(x)

y(x) = e^(-b + c)

y'(x) = -be^(-bx+c)

now sub 3 in

3 = -bce^(-b)

b = -3ce^b

?????????? i'm not absolutely sure about this, because i'm getting that b is a function of b, but I think its not a shabby attempt.

Question:

7. The equation y ' - y = 2 is first-order linear, but is not homogeneous.

If we let w(t) = y(t) + 2, then:

What is w ' ?

****

sub y' as y(t)/dt and rearrange to find that w' = y' = dy(t)/dt

#$&*

What is y(t) in terms of w(t)?

****

since dy(t)/dt = w(t), derive w(t) to get,

dw(t)/dt = dy(t)/dt /dt

dw(t) = y(t)dt

w'(t) = y(t)dt

y(t) = dw(t)/dt / dt

i think

#$&*

What therefore is the equation y ' - y = 2, written in terms of the function w and its derivative w ' ?

****

w(t) - dw(t)/dt /dt = 2

#$&*

Now solve the equation and check your solution:

Solve this new equation in terms of w.

****

w(t) = 2+ dw(t)/dt/dt

#$&*

Substitute y + 2 for w and get the solution in terms of y.

****

y+2 = 2+dw(t)/dt/dt

y = dw(t)/dt/dt

#$&*

Check to be sure this function is indeed a solution to the equation.

****

I'm not sure about the /dt/dt part. maybe an error somewhere, assistance?

I've got a computer malfunction right now and can't send you the link I want to send. Next document you submit ask about the response to query_01.

Your work isn't bad but you need to be able to use the techniques of linear homogeneous equations. Gotta build on that technique. Check my notes.
