Math Problem Statement
Solution
The problem in the image involves solving the differential equation:
and evaluating to three decimal places using the following methods:
- Separation of variables method.
- Integrating factor method.
- Euler's numerical method with step size .
I'll work through these solutions step by step for each method. Let’s start with the first method: **Separation of Variables.**import sympy as sp
Define the variables and function
x = sp.symbols('x') y = sp.Function('y')(x)
Define the differential equation
diff_eq = sp.Eq(y.diff(x) + 2 * x * y, x)
Solve using separation of variables
general_solution = sp.dsolve(diff_eq, y) general_solutionEq(y(x), C1exp(-x**2)/2 + 1/2)Eq(y(x), C1exp(-x**2)/2 + 1/2)successThe general solution to the differential equation using the separation of variables method is:
where is a constant. Next, we apply the initial condition to find .# Apply the initial condition y(0) = 2 C1 = sp.symbols('C1') # Constant of integration initial_condition = sp.Eq(general_solution.rhs.subs(x, 0), 2) C1_value = sp.solve(initial_condition, C1)[0]
Substitute C1 into the general solution
particular_solution = general_solution.subs(C1, C1_value) particular_solutionEq(y(x), 1/2 + 3exp(-x**2)/2)Eq(y(x), 1/2 + 3exp(-x**2)/2)successAfter applying the initial condition , the particular solution to the differential equation is:
Now, to evaluate , substitute into this solution.# Evaluate y(0.6) to 3 decimal places y_at_0_6 = particular_solution.rhs.subs(x, 0.6).evalf() y_at_0_61.546514489106551.54651448910655successUsing the separation of variables method, the value of is approximately:
Next, I'll solve the same problem using the integrating factor method. Let me know if you'd like detailed explanations for this method or the numerical Euler's approach!
