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!
