TLMaths BUMPER Worksheet of Differential Equations (Separation of Variables)

Prerequisites: Reciprocal Trigonometric Functions, Double Angle Formulae, Integrals of 𝑒 "# , sin 𝑘𝑥, cos 𝑘𝑥,
sec , 𝑘𝑥, sin, 𝑘𝑥, cos , 𝑘𝑥, Integration by Substitution, Integration by Parts, Partial Fractions.

• Solutions show the separation of variables and then the general solution.
• Care has been taken to avoid ± in general solutions.
• Not all general solutions have been rearranged to make 𝑦 the subject.
• 𝑐0 is used to represent the constant of integration in each case.
• Nested fractions have been avoided in the general solution.
