I would appreciate any advice on the following ODE substitution question:
xy' = y + (x^2 + y^2)^.5
Dividing thru by x and using the usual y/x substitution, I get:
y' = v + (1 + v^2)^.5 but I don't know if that is right or how to integrate the left side. The book has the answer of y + (x^2 + y^2)^.5 = Cx^2
Am I not handling the radical correctly?
