Homework Statement
Consider the differential equation [itex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/itex] = 2x - y
On the axes provided, sketch a slope field for the given differential equation at the twelve points indicated, and sketch the solution curve that passes through the point (0, 1).
Homework Equations
[itex]\frac{du}{dx}[/itex] = u where u = 2x - y
The Attempt at a Solution
[itex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/itex] = 2x - y
[itex]\frac{du}{dx}[/itex] = u where u = 2x - y
u' = 2 - [itex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/itex]Then what do I do? I have no clue where to go from here.
Is this a homogeneous differential equation?
I know what to do in regards to the rest of the problem, I just don't know how to separate so I can integrate. Do I use the substitution method or integrating factors?
