Homework Statement
dy/dx=-ylny/x initial conditions y(x=1)=1
express answer in the form f(x,y)=0
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
i let u=ln y
du/dy=1/y
y*du=dy
subbing into equation gives int(y/yu du)=-int dx
which is equal to int(1/u du)=-int(1/x) dx
ln (u)=-ln (x) +c
subbing back in for u gives ln(ln (y))=-ln (x)+c
ln (y)=1/x +c
when x= 1 y=1
ln(1)=1/1 +c
0=1+c
c=-1
equation becomes ln(ln(y))=-ln(x)+c
rearranging (here I am concerned that i make a mistake but I am not sure)
ln(ln(y))+ln(x)+1=0
thank you for your time
