Problem (ii)
To solve this equation, we will try to find an integrating factor. First, we write it in the form :
Check if :
Since , we need an integrating factor, which can often be a function of or . We use an integrating factor of the form :
By inspection or using a standard method, we find that the integrating factor is:
Multiply through by the integrating factor:
Simplify:
Now it should be exact:
Since these partial derivatives are equal, we can find a potential function such that:
