Solve the following initial value problem












0












$begingroup$


I want to solve the following initial initial value problem



$x dy + (y-y^2ln(x))dx = 0, y(1) = 1/4$



So far i've approached it by trying to separate it and get



$dx/x = dy/(y-y^2ln(x))$



When I go to the the integral with respect to y for the left side i'm unsure what to do for the $ln(x)$ term.



So I tried to approach it as an exact type of problem instead and get that its not exact, but when I put it into the form $(diM/diY - diN/diX)/N$ I get $2yln(x)/x$.



Im not sure how to do symbol for partial derivative so I said $di$ instead.



Is that my integrating factor? It isn't in terms of only x so i'm confused.



Any help would be appreciated.

          As equation for $y$ it is also Bernoulli. Which means that replacing $y=z^{-1}$, $dy=-z^{-2}dz$ gives
          $$
          -xdz+(z-ln x)dx=0.
          $$

          Now that the equation is linear in $z$ the integrating factor is obvious as $x^{-2}$ where then
          $$
          -d((xy)^{-1})-x^{-2}ln(x)dx=0
          $$

          is exact.

            As LutzL answered, using $y=frac 1 z$ the equation becomes
            $$-frac{x z'-z+log (x)}{z^2}=0$$ So, consider
            $$x z'-z=-log (x)$$ The homogeneous is simple
            $$xz'-z=0implies z=C x$$ Now, if you prefer variation of parameters instead of integrating factor, then
            $$x^2 C'=-log (x) implies C'=-frac {log(x)} {x^2}$$ and $C$ is easily obtained using integration by parts.
