Understanding First Order ODEs and Intersection of Curves
I'm aware that I can introduce the perimeter p = dy/dx then I can rearrange my equation to make y the subject, then I can show that dp/dx = p/x. However, this only gives me a bunch of quadratic curves for my solution. However given part b I see that two curves are meant to intersect each point...- ka_reem13
