Question
Suppose that y(x) denotes a solution of the first-order IVP y x2 y2 , y(1) 1 and that y(x) possesses at least a second derivative at x 1. In some neighborhood of x 1 use the DE to determine whether y(x) is increasing or decreasing and whether the graph y(x) is concave up or concave down.
Solution
The first step in solving 1 problem number 20 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Suppose that y(x) denotes a solution of the first-order IVP y x2 y2 , y(1) 1 and that y(x) possesses at least a second derivative at x 1. In some neighborhood of x 1 use the DE to determine whether y(x) is increasing or decreasing and whether the graph y(x) is concave up or concave down.
From the textbook chapter INTRODUCTION TO DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
