You write
[tex]\int \frac{1}{(v + 1)^2} dv = \int \frac{1}{x} dx[/tex]
and then on the next line
[tex]-v - 1 = \ln |v| + c[/tex]

I think you made a writing error there, which leads to an insolvable equation.
 
ah ok but if its lnx instead of v then I'm still on the right tracks?
 
ok so where do i go from e-v-1=KX ?
 
Yes, until that step you were fine.
Remember, you want the expression for v(x), and finally y(x) = x v(x).
So you have to solve v(x) from [itex]e^{-v(x)-1} = k x[/itex]. Try taking logarithms on both sides.
