Book: INTRODUCTORY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS. Martha L. Abell, James P. Braselton.
Fourth edition 2014. ElScAe. 2014
Section: Chapter 1. Introduction to Differential Equations. Exercises 1.1, page 10
Problem number: 44.
ODE order: 1.
ODE degree: 1.
The type(s) of ODE detected by this program : "quadrature"
Maple gives the following as the ode type
[_quadrature]
\[ \boxed {y^{\prime }=\frac {1}{x^{2}-16}} \]
Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} y &= \int { \frac {1}{x^{2}-16}\,\mathop {\mathrm {d}x}}\\ &= -\frac {\operatorname {arctanh}\left (\frac {x}{4}\right )}{4}+c_{1} \end {align*}
Summary
The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} y &= -\frac {\operatorname {arctanh}\left (\frac {x}{4}\right )}{4}+c_{1} \\ \end{align*}
Verification of solutions
\[ y = -\frac {\operatorname {arctanh}\left (\frac {x}{4}\right )}{4}+c_{1} \] Verified OK.
