Given the first order ODE y' = 2 * y^3 * x, plot the isoclines corresponding to slopes m = +1 and m = -1.
My answer:
The isoclines are given by m= 2 * y^3 * x or y=(m/(2*x))^1/3
The slope elements on the isocline y=+- (m/(2*x))^1/3 all have gradient m
For m = 1, the isocline is y = +- (1/(2*x))^1/3
For m = -1, the isocline is y = +- (-1/(2*x))^1/3
and hence l simply plotted the above two equations
Can anyone confirm whether or not l am correct
Thanks
