3.1.2 Existence and uniqueness for linear first order ode in y

3.1.2.1 Example 1
3.1.2.2 Example 2
3.1.2.3 Example 3
3.1.2.4 Example 4

These are ode’s in the form

y+p(x)y=q(x)

The theorem says that if both p(x),q(x) are continuous at x0 then solution exists and is unique. Notice that now we do not check on y0 but only on x0. We get both existence and uniqueness all in one test. If either p or q are not continuous, then no guarantee solution exist or be unique.
