1/2*(dy)/(dx)=(2x)/(3y)
⚠ 2x is read as the product 2*x: for a power, write 2^x‖3y is read as the product 3*y: for a power, write 3^y‖1/2*(dy)/(dx)=(2x)/(3y) is read as 1/2*y'=(2x)/(3y): use dif(expression, variable) for a derivative with respect to that variable, use (numerator)/(denominator) for a quotient
Solve the separable equation 12·y' = 2x3y, where y is a function of x and y ≠ 0
⇥Let's find the domain of 4x3
The function of x is defined for x ∈ ℝ
Multiply by y and separate the variables: y·dy = 4x3·dx
⇥Let's compute the integral: ∫(4x3)dx
⇥ 43·x22
⇥ 4x26
⇥ 2x23
Integrating both sides gives y22 = 2x23 + C, where C is an arbitrary real constant
Multiply by 2 and rename 2C as C: y2 = 4x23 + C
The two real branches have a fixed sign on each interval where the original right side is real and 4x23 + C > 0; y = 0 is excluded
▶Solution:   y = { -4x23 + C, 4x23 + C }
