Different solutions to x/(1-x) by substitution and decomposition
Homework Statement Derive x/(1-x) Homework Equations By substitution: u = (1-x) du = -dx ∫x/(1-x)dx = -∫(1-u)/u du = ∫1-(1/u)du = u-log(u)+c = (1-x) - log(1-x) + c By decomposition: x/(1-x) = 1/(1-x)-1 ∫1/(1-x)-1dx = -log(1-x)-x+c The Attempt at a Solution Which solutions...- greentea

Exact ODE and Finding Integrating Factors
Homework Statement In my ODE class, we learned how to solve first order ordinary differential equations which are not exact yet but exact after multiplying by the right integrating factor. The integrating factor we learned about take one of the five forms: f(x), f(y), f(xy), f(x/y), and...- greentea
