Correct answer: B
Given differential equation
dxdy+x2−1xy=1−x2x4+2x,x∈(−1,1)
We must find the solution curve y=f(x) passing through the origin, i.e. f(0)=0, and then compute
I=∫−2323f(x)dx.
Write the equation in linear form
Since
x2−1x=−1−x2x,
the equation becomes
dxdy−1−x2xy=1−x2x4+2x.
This is a linear differential equation:
dxdy+P(x)y=Q(x),
with
P(x)=−1−x2x.
Find the integrating factor
I.F.=e∫P(x)dx=e∫−1−x2xdx.
Let u=1−x2, then du=−2xdx, so
∫−1−x2xdx=21∫udu=21ln(1−x2).
Hence,
I.F.=e21ln(1−x2)=1−x2.
Multiply the differential equation by the integrating factor
Multiplying throughout by 1−x2,
1−x2dxdy−1−x2xy=x4+2x.
The left side is exactly
dxd(y1−x2).
So,
dxd(y1−x2)=x4+2x.
Integrating,
y1−x2=∫(x4+2x)dx=5x5+x2+C.
Thus,
y=f(x)=1−x25x5+x2+C.
Use the condition that the curve passes through the origin
Since f(0)=0,
0=1−00+0+C=C.
So,
f(x)=1−x25x5+x2.
Therefore,
I=∫−23231−x25x5+x2dx.
Use symmetry
Observe:
1−x2x5 is an odd function, so its integral over [−a,a] is 0.
