3.6.1 Solving as linear ode

Entering Linear first order ODE solver. In canonical form a linear first order is \begin {align*} y^{\prime } + p(x)y &= q(x) \end {align*}

Where here \begin {align*} p(x) &=2 x\\ q(x) &=0 \end {align*}

Hence the ode is \begin {align*} y^{\prime }+2 x y = 0 \end {align*}

The integrating factor \(\mu \) is \begin{align*} \mu &= {\mathrm e}^{\int 2 x d x} \\ &= {\mathrm e}^{x^{2}} \\ \end{align*} The ode becomes \begin {align*} \frac {\mathop {\mathrm {d}}}{ \mathop {\mathrm {d}x}} \mu y &= 0 \\ \frac {\mathop {\mathrm {d}}}{ \mathop {\mathrm {d}x}} \left ({\mathrm e}^{x^{2}} y\right ) &= 0 \end {align*}

Integrating gives \begin {align*} {\mathrm e}^{x^{2}} y &= c_{1} \end {align*}

Dividing both sides by the integrating factor \(\mu ={\mathrm e}^{x^{2}}\) results in \begin {align*} y &= c_{1} {\mathrm e}^{-x^{2}} \end {align*}

Summary

The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} y &= c_{1} {\mathrm e}^{-x^{2}} \\ \end{align*}
