First Order Linear Equations

The differential equation of the form:

( ) ( )
where and are continuous functions.
( ) ( )
This form of the equation is the standard form. This differential
equation is said to be Homogenous DE when
Note:
Don’t get confuse by Homogenous Function with Homogenous DE
SOLVING A LINEAR FIRST-ORDER EQUATION

1. Put a linear equation into the standard form


 
2. Identify 𝑃 𝑥 and then find the integrating factor 𝑒 ∫  . No constant need to
 
be used in evaluating the indefinite integral ∫  𝑝 𝑥 𝑑𝑥.

3. Multiply the both sides of the standard form equation by the integrating factor.

The left-hand side of the resulting equation is automatically the derivative of the
 
∫ 
product of the integrating factor 𝑒 and 𝑦.

𝑑 ∫   
∫ 
[𝑒   𝑦] = 𝑒 𝑓(𝑥)
𝑑𝑥

4. Integrate both side of the last equation and solve for 𝑦


Example1:
Solve the differential equation

Exact differential equation

Total (or exact ) differential:


In calculus, the total or exact differential of function is defined by

(1)

An expression is said to be an exact differential


if there exist a function such that

and (2)

.
Exact differential equation:
An equation
=0 (3)
is called an exact differential equation iff the expression
is an exact differential of some function .
Therefore, by using (2) we can write (3) in the form

that is
So that by integrating we have, is the general solution of (3).
Theorem: Criteria for the Exact DE

The differential equation =0,


is called an exact differential equation iff

where the function and has continuous first order partial derivatives.
