Differential Equations and Integrating Factors

This video tutorial explains how to use an integrating factor to convert a non-exact differential equation into an exact one. It begins by checking the exactness of the given equation using partial derivatives. When the equation is found to be non-exact, the tutorial demonstrates how to find an integrating factor that depends only on one variable. After applying the integrating factor, the equation becomes exact, allowing for the derivation of the general solution. The tutorial concludes with solving for the dependent variable and presenting the implicit form of the solution.

What is the condition for a differential equation to be considered exact?

• The partial derivative of M with respect to x equals the partial derivative of N with respect to y.

• The partial derivative of M with respect to y equals the partial derivative of N with respect to x.

• The partial derivative of N with respect to x equals zero.

• The partial derivative of M with respect to y equals zero.

What is the partial derivative of M with respect to y for the given equation?

• Two y to the power of negative three cosine X

• Negative y to the power of negative two

• Y to the power of negative two

• Negative two y to the power of negative three cosine X minus y to the power of negative two

Why is the given differential equation not exact?

• Because the partial of M with respect to y equals the partial of N with respect to x.

• Because the equation is homogeneous.

• Because the equation is linear.

• Because the partial of M with respect to y does not equal the partial of N with respect to x.

What is the purpose of finding an integrating factor?

• To make a non-linear equation linear.

• To simplify the equation by eliminating variables.

• To convert a non-exact differential equation into an exact one.
