Homework Statement


I need to find a general function y(x) such that:
[tex] \dot y(x) - 2y(x) = y^2(x)-3 [/tex]


Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution


I tried dividing the equation by [tex] y^2-3 [/tex] and turn it into a Bernoulli differential equation, but that didn't work. The equation seems relatively simple yet i can't recall any method to solve it. Please help.

It's separable. dy/dx = y2 + 2y - 3 ==> dy/(y2 + 2y - 3) = dx
