Suppose that the first-order differential equation
Chapter 1, Problem 49E(choose chapter or problem)
Suppose that the first-order differential equation dy/dx = f(x, y) possesses a one-parameter family of solutions and that f(x, y) satisfies the hypotheses of Theorem 1.2.1 in some rectangular region R of the xy-plane. Explain why two different solution curves cannot intersect or be tangent to each other at a point \(\left(x_{0}, \ y_{0}\right)\) in R.
