First-order linear equations

y′ + P(x)y = Q(x) and the integrating factor that makes it integrable.

Multiply y′ + P(x)y = Q(x) by μ = e^{∫P dx} and the left side collapses to (μy)′, one integration finishes it. This is the workhorse for mixing tanks, RC circuits and Newton's law of cooling.

  1. y{\left(x \right)} + \frac{d}{d x} y{\left(x \right)} = x

    The differential equation.

  2. \text{order } 1

    Order 1: the highest derivative present.

  3. \text{Exact}

लोक विचारतात ते प्रश्न

What is a differential equation?

An equation whose unknown is a function, relating it to its own derivatives. "The rate of growth is proportional to the population" is y′ = ky, and solving it means finding y as a function of time.

Why does the solution have arbitrary constants?

Integrating loses information: many functions share the same derivative. An n-th order equation has n constants, fixed by n initial or boundary conditions.
