    Linear First-Order Differential Equations

    Uploaded by

    Marc Mathieu
    This document discusses methods for solving linear first-order differential equations. It introduces the integrating factor method, which involves multiplying both sides of the differential equation by an integrating factor that depends only on x. This results in an exact equation that can be solved by integrating both sides with respect to x. Bernoulli differential equations, where the coefficient of y' is a function of x and y, can be converted to linear equations using a substitution. Examples are provided to illustrate solving first-order linear differential equations and initial value problems using these methods.

    Method of Solution
    First-order linear differential equation has the form

    An integrating factor for the first-order linear differential equation is

    which depends only on x and is independent of y. When both sides of the first-order linear
    differential form are multiplied by I(x), the resulting equation

    is exact. A simpler procedure is to rewrite the above resulting equation as

    integrate both sides of this last equation with respect to x, and then solve the resulting
    equation for y.
