[SOLVED] Differential Equations problem


1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data

(x - y ln(y) + y ln(x))dx + x(ln(y) - ln(x))dy = 0

Solving for general solution.


2. Relevant equations

N/A

3. The attempt at a solution

I have attempted for exactness, have attempted at separating the variables, checked if it was homogeneous, and thrown every method I know at this problem. I am usually excellent with DE, I am at a loss with this problem.

Nevermind, it's homogenous. After you factor out a -y from the first term it becomes more obvious.

Thanks anyway!
