10. First order; linear
11. Writing the differential equation in the form x(dy/dx) + y2 = 1, we see that it is nonlinear
in y because of y2. However, writing it in the form (y2 − 1)(dx/dy) + x = 0, we see that it is
linear in x.
12. Writing the differential equation in the form u(dv/du) + (1 + u)v = ueu we see that it is
linear in v. However, writing it in the form (v + uv − ueu)(du/dv) + u = 0, we see that it is
nonlinear in u.
13. From y = e−x/2 we obtain y′ = − 12 e−x/2. Then 2y′ + y = −e−x/2 + e−x/2 = 0.

15. From y = e3x cos 2x we obtain y′ = 3e3x cos 2x−2e3x sin 2x and y′′ = 5e3x cos 2x−12e3x sin 2x,
so that y′′ − 6y′ + 13y = 0.

16. From y = − cos x ln(sec x + tan x) we obtain y = −1 + sin x ln(sec x + tan x) and
′′ ′′
y = tan x + cos x ln(sec x + tan x). Then y + y = tan x.
17. The domain of the function, found by solving x+2 ≥ 0, is [−2, ∞). From y′ = 1+2(x+2)−1/2
we have
′ −1/2
(y − x)y = (y − x)[1 + (2(x + 2) ]

im

= y − x + 8(x + 2)1/2 (x + 2)−1/2 = y − x + 8.

An interval of definition for the solution of the differential equation is (−2, ∞) because y′ is

not defined at x = −2.
18. Since tan x is not defined for x = π/2 + nπ, n an integer, the domain of y = 5 tan 5x is

{x 5x /= π/2 + nπ}
or {x x /= π/10 + nπ/5}. From y ′= 25 sec 25x we have
s



y = 25(1 + tan2 5x) = 25 + 25 tan2 5x = 25 + y 2 .

An interval of definition for the solution of the differential equation is (−π/10, π/10). An-
other interval is (π/10, 3π/10), and so on.
19. The domain of the function is {x 4 − x 2 /= 0} or {x x /= −2 or x /= 2}. From y ′=

An interval of definition for the solution of the differential equation is (−2, 2). Other inter-
vals are (−∞, −2) and (2, ∞).

20. The function is y = 1/ 1 − sin x , whose domain is obtained from 1 − sin x /= 0 or sin x /= 1.
′ 1 −3/2
Thus, the domain is {x x /

2 − sin x) (− cos x) we have
2y′ = (1 − sin x)−3/2 cos x = [(1 − sin x)−1/2]3 cos x = y3 cos x.

An interval of definition for the solution of the differential equation is (π/2, 5π/2). Another
one is (5π/2, 9π/2), and so on.

Exponentiating both sides of the implicit solution we obtain

Solving et − 2 = 0 we get t = ln 2. Thus, the solution is defined on (−∞, ln 2) or on (ln 2, ∞).
The graph of the solution defined on (−∞, ln 2) is dashed, and the graph of the solution

defined on (ln 2, ∞) is solid.

for y, we get y = 2x2 ±4x4 + 4 /2 = x2 ± x4 + 1 . –4

Thus, two explicit solutions are y1 = x2 + x4 + 1 and

y2 = x2 − x4 + 1 . Both solutions are defined on (−∞, ∞).
The graph of y1(x) is solid and the graph of y2 is dashed.
