This document discusses methods for solving first order differential equations, including the variable separable method. It provides examples of differential equations that are separable, such as dy/dx = xy and dy/dx = x/y. For separable equations, the general solution can be found by directly integrating both sides. The document also gives a specific example of using the variable separable method to solve the differential equation dy/dx = y2x2, including finding the particular solution given an initial condition. It notes some differential equations that are reducible to separable form using techniques like integrating factors or integrating by parts.
