Solution

dydx - y = sin xThe above is a linear differential equation of the form of dydx + Py = Q, whereP = -1; Q = sin xNow, IF = ePdx = e-dx = e-xNow, the solution of the above equation is given byy × IF = Q × IFdx +Cye-x = sin x × e-x dx + C ....1Let I1 = e-x sin x dx ....2I1 = sin x × -e-x - cos x × -e-x dxI1 = -e-x sin x + e-x cos x dxI1 = -e-x sin x + cos x×-e-x - -sin x×-e-x dxI1 = -e-x sin x - e-x cos x - e-x sin x dxI1 = -e-x sin x - e-x cos x - I1 Using 22I1 = -e-xsin x + cos xI1 = -e-x2sin x + cos xNow, from 1, we getye-x = -e-x2sin x + cos x + C
