[[_homogeneous, `class A`], _rational, [_Abel, `2nd type`, `class A`]]

\[ \boxed {y^{\prime }-\frac {2 x -y}{x +4 y}=0} \] With initial conditions \begin {align*} [y \left (1\right ) = 1] \end {align*}

4.17.1 Existence and uniqueness analysis

This is non linear first order ODE. In canonical form it is written as \begin {align*} y^{\prime } &= f(x,y)\\ &= -\frac {y -2 x}{x +4 y} \end {align*}

The \(x\) domain of \(f(x,y)\) when \(y=1\) is \[ \{x <-4\boldsymbol {\lor }-4

The \(x\) domain of \(\frac {\partial f}{\partial y}\) when \(y=1\) is \[ \{x <-4\boldsymbol {\lor }-4

4.17.2 Solving as homogeneous ode

In canonical form, the ODE is \begin {align*} y' &= F(x,y)\\ &= -\frac {y -2 x}{x +4 y}\tag {1} \end {align*}

An ode of the form \(y' = \frac {M(x,y)}{N(x,y)}\) is called homogeneous if the functions \(M(x,y)\) and \(N(x,y)\) are both homogeneous functions and of the same order. Recall that a function \(f(x,y)\) is homogeneous of order \(n\) if \[ f(t^n x, t^n y)= t^n f(x,y) \] In this case, it can be seen that both \(M=-y +2 x\) and \(N=x +4 y\) are both homogeneous and of the same order \(n=1\). Therefore this is a homogeneous ode. Since this ode is homogeneous, it is converted to separable ODE using the substitution \(u=\frac {y}{x}\), or \(y=ux\). Hence \[ \frac { \mathop {\mathrm {d}y}}{\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}}= \frac { \mathop {\mathrm {d}u}}{\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}}x + u \] Applying the transformation \(y=ux\) to the above ODE in (1) gives \begin {align*} \frac { \mathop {\mathrm {d}u}}{\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}}x + u &= \frac {-u +2}{4 u +1}\\ \frac { \mathop {\mathrm {d}u}}{\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}} &= \frac {\frac {-u \left (x \right )+2}{4 u \left (x \right )+1}-u \left (x \right )}{x} \end {align*}

Or \[ u^{\prime }\left (x \right )-\frac {\frac {-u \left (x \right )+2}{4 u \left (x \right )+1}-u \left (x \right )}{x} = 0 \] Or \[ 4 u^{\prime }\left (x \right ) x u \left (x \right )+u^{\prime }\left (x \right ) x +4 u \left (x \right )^{2}+2 u \left (x \right )-2 = 0 \] Or \[ -2+x \left (4 u \left (x \right )+1\right ) u^{\prime }\left (x \right )+4 u \left (x \right )^{2}+2 u \left (x \right ) = 0 \] Which is now solved as separable in \(u \left (x \right )\). Which is now solved in \(u \left (x \right )\). In canonical form the ODE is \begin {align*} u' &= F(x,u)\\ &= f( x) g(u)\\ &= -\frac {2 \left (2 u^{2}+u -1\right )}{x \left (4 u +1\right )} \end {align*}

Where \(f(x)=-\frac {2}{x}\) and \(g(u)=\frac {2 u^{2}+u -1}{4 u +1}\). Integrating both sides gives \begin{align*} \frac {1}{\frac {2 u^{2}+u -1}{4 u +1}} \,du &= -\frac {2}{x} \,d x \\ \int { \frac {1}{\frac {2 u^{2}+u -1}{4 u +1}} \,du} &= \int {-\frac {2}{x} \,d x} \\ \ln \left (u +1\right )+\ln \left (u -\frac {1}{2}\right )&=-2 \ln \left (x \right )+c_{2} \\ \end{align*} Raising both side to exponential gives \begin {align*} {\mathrm e}^{\ln \left (u +1\right )+\ln \left (u -\frac {1}{2}\right )} &= {\mathrm e}^{-2 \ln \left (x \right )+c_{2}} \end {align*}

Which simplifies to \begin {align*} u^{2}+\frac {1}{2} u -\frac {1}{2} &= \frac {c_{3}}{x^{2}} \end {align*}

The solution is \[ u \left (x \right )^{2}+\frac {u \left (x \right )}{2}-\frac {1}{2} = \frac {c_{3}}{x^{2}} \] Now \(u\) in the above solution is replaced back by \(y\) using \(u=\frac {y}{x}\) which results in the solution \[ \frac {y^{2}}{x^{2}}+\frac {y}{2 x}-\frac {1}{2} = \frac {c_{3}}{x^{2}} \] Which simplifies to \begin {align*} -\frac {\left (y+x \right ) \left (-2 y+x \right )}{2} = c_{3} \end {align*}

Substituting initial conditions and solving for \(c_{3}\) gives \(c_{3} = 1\). Hence the solution becomes

Summary

The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} -\frac {\left (y+x \right ) \left (-2 y+x \right )}{2} &= 1 \\ \end{align*}

Verification of solutions

\[ -\frac {\left (y+x \right ) \left (-2 y+x \right )}{2} = 1 \] Verified OK.
