3.7.1 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) &=-\frac {3}{x}\\ q(x) &=x^{3} \end {align*}

Hence the ode is \begin {align*} y^{\prime }-\frac {3 y}{x} = x^{3} \end {align*}

The integrating factor \(\mu \) is \begin{align*} \mu &= {\mathrm e}^{\int -\frac {3}{x}d x} \\ &= \frac {1}{x^{3}} \\ \end{align*} The ode becomes \begin {align*} \frac {\mathop {\mathrm {d}}}{ \mathop {\mathrm {d}x}}\left ( \mu y\right ) &= \left (\mu \right ) \left (x^{3}\right ) \\ \frac {\mathop {\mathrm {d}}}{ \mathop {\mathrm {d}x}} \left (\frac {y}{x^{3}}\right ) &= \left (\frac {1}{x^{3}}\right ) \left (x^{3}\right )\\ \mathrm {d} \left (\frac {y}{x^{3}}\right ) &= \mathrm {d} x \end {align*}

Integrating gives \begin {align*} \frac {y}{x^{3}} &= \int {\mathrm {d} x}\\ \frac {y}{x^{3}} &= x + c_{1} \end {align*}

Dividing both sides by the integrating factor \(\mu =\frac {1}{x^{3}}\) results in \begin {align*} y &= c_{1} x^{3}+x^{4} \end {align*}

which simplifies to \begin {align*} y &= x^{3} \left (c_{1} +x \right ) \end {align*}

Summary

The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} y &= x^{3} \left (c_{1} +x \right ) \\ \end{align*}
