Problem 04 | Determination of Integrating Factor

Problem 04
$y(4x + y)~dx - 2(x^2 - y)~dy = 0$
 

Solution 04
$M~dx + N~dy = 0$

$y(4x + y)~dx - 2(x^2 - y)~dy = 0$
 

$M = y(4x + y) = 4xy + y^2$

$N = -2(x^2 - y) = -2x^2 + 2y$
 

$\dfrac{\partial M}{\partial y} = 4x + 2y$

$\dfrac{\partial N}{\partial x} = -4x$
 

$\dfrac{\partial M}{\partial y} - \dfrac{\partial N}{\partial x} = (4x + 2y) - (-4x)$

$\dfrac{\partial M}{\partial y} - \dfrac{\partial N}{\partial x} = 8x + 2y$
 

Problem 03 | Determination of Integrating Factor

Problem 03
$y(2x - y + 1)~dx + x(3x - 4y + 3)~dy = 0$
 

Solution 03
$M~dx + N~dy = 0$

$y(2x - y + 1)~dx + x(3x - 4y + 3)~dy = 0$
 

$M = y(2x - y + 1) = 2xy - y^2 + y$

$N = x(3x - 4y + 3) = 3x^2 - 4xy + 3x$
 

$\dfrac{\partial M}{\partial y} = 2x - 2y + 1$

$\dfrac{\partial N}{\partial x} = 6x - 4y + 3$
 

$\dfrac{\partial M}{\partial y} - \dfrac{\partial N}{\partial x} = (2x - 2y + 1) - (6x - 4y + 3)$

$\dfrac{\partial M}{\partial y} - \dfrac{\partial N}{\partial x} = -4x + 2y - 2$

The Determination of Integrating Factor

From the differential equation
 

$M ~ dx + N ~ dy = 0$

 

Rule 1
If   $\dfrac{1}{N}\left( \dfrac{\partial M}{\partial y} - \dfrac{\partial N}{\partial x} \right) = f(x)$,   a function of x alone, then   $u = e^{\int f(x)~dx}$   is the integrating factor.

 

Rule 2
If   $\dfrac{1}{M}\left( \dfrac{\partial M}{\partial y} - \dfrac{\partial N}{\partial x} \right) = f(y)$,   a function of y alone, then   $u = e^{-\int f(y)~dy}$   is the integrating factor.
