TopicFirst order differential equations (integrating factor)

  1. Express \(\frac { 1 } { ( 4 x + 1 ) ( x + 1 ) }\) in partial fractions.
  2. A curve passes through the point \(( 0,2 )\) and satisfies the differential equation \(\frac { d y } { d x } = \frac { y } { ( 4 x + 1 ) ( x + 1 ) }\),
    for \(x > - \frac { 1 } { 4 }\).
    Show by integration that \(\mathrm { y } = \mathrm { A } \left( \frac { 4 \mathrm { x } + 1 } { \mathrm { x } + 1 } \right) ^ { \mathrm { B } }\) where \(A\) and \(B\) are constants to be determined.
