Solve the Cauchy problem:

\begin{align}
\dfrac{dx}{dr} &= y\\
x(0,s) &= s
\end{align}

Help please, I don't remember how solve this :(. Separate variable isn't the method?

Is it surely $\frac{dx}{dr}$ ?
 
Thread 'Direction Fields and Isoclines'
I sketched the isoclines for $$ m=-1,0,1,2 $$. Since both $$ \frac{dy}{dx} $$ and $$ D_{y} \frac{dy}{dx} $$ are continuous on the square region R defined by $$ -4\leq x \leq 4, -4 \leq y \leq 4 $$ the existence and uniqueness theorem guarantees that if we pick a point in the interior that lies on an isocline there will be a unique differentiable function (solution) passing through that point. I understand that a solution exists but I unsure how to actually sketch it. For example, consider a...
