Homework Statement
Find all f(x) satisfying:
∫f dx ∫1/f dx = -1
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I solved for ∫1/f dx and differentiated both sides (using the quotient rule for the right side):
∫1/f dx = -1 / ∫f dx
1/f = f / (∫f dx)2
(∫f dx)2 = f2
∫fdx = ±f
f = ±f'
Solving the differential equation for f = f ' I get f = cex
But when I try to prove if my solution is correct, I got:
∫cex dx ∫ 1/(cex) dx = -1
(ex + k1)(-e-x + k2) = -1
And I don't know what to do to get -1 on the left side.
Could you give me a hint please?
