Correct answer: 1

  1. Given differential equation

2cos⁡x dydx=sin⁡2x−4ysin⁡x,x∈(0,π2)2\cos x\,\frac{dy}{dx}=\sin 2x-4y\sin x, \qquad x\in\left(0,\frac{\pi}{2}\right)2cosxdxdy​=sin2x−4ysinx,x∈(0,2π​)

We use sin⁡2x=2sin⁡xcos⁡x\sin 2x=2\sin x\cos xsin2x=2sinxcosx:

2cos⁡x y′=2sin⁡xcos⁡x−4ysin⁡x2\cos x\,y'=2\sin x\cos x-4y\sin x2cosxy′=2sinxcosx−4ysinx

Divide by 2cos⁡x2\cos x2cosx (valid since x∈(0,π/2)x\in(0,\pi/2)x∈(0,π/2), so cos⁡x>0\cos x>0cosx>0):

y′=sin⁡x−2ytan⁡xy'=\sin x-2y\tan xy′=sinx−2ytanx

So,

y′+2ytan⁡x=sin⁡xy'+2y\tan x=\sin xy′+2ytanx=sinx


  1. Solve the linear differential equation

This is of the form

y′+P(x)y=Q(x),P(x)=2tan⁡xy'+P(x)y=Q(x), \qquad P(x)=2\tan xy′+P(x)y=Q(x),P(x)=2tanx

Integrating factor:

I.F.=e∫2tan⁡x dx=e2∫tan⁡x dx\text{I.F.}=e^{\int 2\tan x\,dx}=e^{2\int \tan x\,dx}I.F.=e∫2tanxdx=e2∫tanxdx

Since ∫tan⁡x dx=ln⁡(sec⁡x)\int \tan x\,dx=\ln(\sec x)∫tanxdx=ln(secx),

I.F.=e2ln⁡(sec⁡x)=sec⁡2x\text{I.F.}=e^{2\ln(\sec x)}=\sec^2 xI.F.=e2ln(secx)=sec2x

Multiply the equation by sec⁡2x\sec^2 xsec2x:

sec⁡2x y′+2tan⁡xsec⁡2x y=sin⁡xsec⁡2x\sec^2 x\,y'+2\tan x\sec^2 x\,y=\sin x\sec^2 xsec2xy′+2tanxsec2xy=sinxsec2x

Left side is:

ddx(ysec⁡2x)=sin⁡xsec⁡2x\frac{d}{dx}(y\sec^2 x)=\sin x\sec^2 xdxd​(ysec2x)=sinxsec2x

Now,

sin⁡xsec⁡2x=sin⁡xcos⁡2x=tan⁡xsec⁡x\sin x\sec^2 x=\frac{\sin x}{\cos^2 x}=\tan x\sec xsinxsec2x=cos2xsinx​=tanxsecx

Hence,

ysec⁡2x=∫tan⁡xsec⁡x dx=sec⁡x+Cy\sec^2 x=\int \tan x\sec x\,dx=\sec x+Cysec2x=∫tanxsecxdx=secx+C

Therefore,

y=(sec⁡x+C)cos⁡2x=cos⁡x+Ccos⁡2xy=(\sec x+C)\cos^2 x=\cos x+C\cos^2 xy=(secx+C)cos2x=cosx+Ccos2x


  1. Use the condition y(π3)=0y\left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right)=0y(3π​)=0

At x=π3x=\frac{\pi}{3}x=3π​,

0=y(π3)=cos⁡π3+Ccos⁡2π30=y\left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right)=\cos\frac{\pi}{3}+C\cos^2\frac{\pi}{3}0=y(3π​)=cos3π​+Ccos23π​

0=12+C⋅140=\frac12+C\cdot\frac140=21​+C⋅41​

C4=−12  ⟹  C=−2\frac{C}{4}=-\frac12 \implies C=-24C​=−21​⟹C=−2

So the solution is

y=cos⁡x−2cos⁡2xy=\cos x-2\cos^2 xy=cosx−2cos2x


  1. Find y(π4)y\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right)y(4π​)

Since cos⁡π4=22\cos\frac{\pi}{4}=\frac{\sqrt2}{2}cos4π​=22​​ and cos⁡2π4=12\cos^2\frac{\pi}{4}=\frac12cos24π​=21​,

y(π4)=22−2⋅12=22−1y\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right)=\frac{\sqrt2}{2}-2\cdot\frac12=\frac{\sqrt2}{2}-1y(4π​)=22​​−2⋅21​=22​​−1


  1. Find y′(π4)y'\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right)y′(4π​)

Differentiate:

y=cos⁡x−2cos⁡2xy=\cos x-2\cos^2 xy=cosx−2cos2x

y′=−sin⁡x−2⋅2cos⁡x(−sin⁡x)=−sin⁡x+4sin⁡xcos⁡xy'=-\sin x-2\cdot 2\cos x(-\sin x)=-\sin x+4\sin x\cos xy′=−sinx−2⋅2cosx(−sinx)=−sinx+4sinxcosx

At x=π4x=\frac{\pi}{4}x=4π​,

sin⁡π4=cos⁡π4=22,4sin⁡π4cos⁡π4=4⋅12=2\sin\frac{\pi}{4}=\cos\frac{\pi}{4}=\frac{\sqrt2}{2}, \qquad 4\sin\frac{\pi}{4}\cos\frac{\pi}{4}=4\cdot\frac12=2sin4π​=cos4π​=22​​,4sin4π​cos4π​=4⋅21​=2

Thus,

y′(π4)=−22+2y'\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right)=-\frac{\sqrt2}{2}+2y′(4π​)=−22​​+2


  1. Compute the required value

y′(π4)+y(π4)=(2−22)+(22−1)=1y'\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right)+y\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right)=\left(2-\frac{\sqrt2}{2}\right)+\left(\frac{\sqrt2}{2}-1\right)=1y′(4π​)+y(4π​)=(2−22​​)+(22​​−1)=1

So the required integer is

1\boxed{1}1​


  1. Comparison with stored answer

Stored correct answer: 111

Our derived answer is also 111, so they agree.
