Differential Equations and Integrating Factors

The video tutorial explains how to find the general solution to a system of differential equations. It begins by solving the first equation for y1 using separation of variables and integration. The solution for y1 is then substituted into the second and third equations. An integrating factor is used to solve these equations for y2 and y3. Finally, the general solution for the system is presented.

What is the first step in solving the differential equation y1' = 3y1?

• Use the method of undetermined coefficients

• Apply separation of variables

• Use Laplace transforms
