Hi All,

I am a postgrad student looking for help in solving this ODE.


Homework Statement



[tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{y^{2}+xy^{2}}{x^{2}y-x}[/tex]


Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution


I have been attempting to solve this by substitution but without success, any help would be appreciated.

 
Physics news on Phys.org
It looks separable.
 
The furthest I can get is

[tex]x(xy-1)dy=(x+1)y^{2}dx[/tex]

but do not know where to go from here?
