The type(s) of ODE detected by this program : "second_order_ode_missing_x"

Maple gives the following as the ode type

[[_2nd_order, _missing_x], _Liouville, [_2nd_order, _reducible, _mu_x_y1], [_2nd_order, _reducible, _mu_xy]]

\[ \boxed {3 y y^{\prime \prime }-2 {y^{\prime }}^{2}=0} \] With initial conditions \begin {align*} [y \left (0\right ) = 8, y^{\prime }\left (0\right ) = 6] \end {align*}

8.21.1 Solving as second order ode missing x ode

This is missing independent variable second order ode. Solved by reduction of order by using substitution which makes the dependent variable \(y\) an independent variable. Using \begin {align*} y' &= p(y) \end {align*}

Then \begin {align*} y'' &= \frac {dp}{dx}\\ &= \frac {dy}{dx} \frac {dp}{dy}\\ &= p \frac {dp}{dy} \end {align*}

Hence the ode becomes \begin {align*} 3 y p \left (y \right ) \left (\frac {d}{d y}p \left (y \right )\right )-2 p \left (y \right )^{2} = 0 \end {align*}

Which is now solved as first order ode for \(p(y)\). In canonical form the ODE is \begin {align*} p' &= F(y,p)\\ &= f( y) g(p)\\ &= \frac {2 p}{3 y} \end {align*}

Where \(f(y)=\frac {2}{3 y}\) and \(g(p)=p\). Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} \frac {1}{p} \,dp &= \frac {2}{3 y} \,d y\\ \int { \frac {1}{p} \,dp} &= \int {\frac {2}{3 y} \,d y}\\ \ln \left (p \right )&=\frac {2 \ln \left (y \right )}{3}+c_{1}\\ p&={\mathrm e}^{\frac {2 \ln \left (y \right )}{3}+c_{1}}\\ &=c_{1} y^{\frac {2}{3}} \end {align*}

Initial conditions are used to solve for \(c_{1}\). Substituting \(y=8\) and \(p=6\) in the above solution gives an equation to solve for the constant of integration. \begin {align*} 6 = 4 c_{1} \end {align*}

The solutions are \begin {align*} c_{1} = {\frac {3}{2}} \end {align*}

Trying the constant \begin {align*} c_{1} = {\frac {3}{2}} \end {align*}

Substituting this in the general solution gives \begin {align*} p \left (y \right )&=\frac {3 y^{\frac {2}{3}}}{2} \end {align*}

The constant \(c_{1} = {\frac {3}{2}}\) gives valid solution.

For solution (1) found earlier, since \(p=y^{\prime }\) then we now have a new first order ode to solve which is \begin {align*} y^{\prime } = \frac {3 y^{\frac {2}{3}}}{2} \end {align*}

Integrating both sides gives \begin {align*} \int \frac {2}{3 y^{\frac {2}{3}}}d y &= \int {dx}\\ 2 y^{\frac {1}{3}}&= x +c_{2} \end {align*}

Initial conditions are used to solve for \(c_{2}\). Substituting \(x=0\) and \(y=8\) in the above solution gives an equation to solve for the constant of integration. \begin {align*} 4 = c_{2} \end {align*}

The solutions are \begin {align*} c_{2} = 4 \end {align*}

Trying the constant \begin {align*} c_{2} = 4 \end {align*}

Substituting \(c_{2}\) found above in the general solution gives \begin {align*} 2 y^{\frac {1}{3}} = x +4 \end {align*}

The constant \(c_{2} = 4\) gives valid solution.

Initial conditions are used to solve for the constants of integration.

Summary

The solution(s) found are the following \begin{align*} \tag{1} y &= \frac {1}{8} x^{3}+\frac {3}{2} x^{2}+6 x +8 \\ \end{align*}
