Solution

This is a first order linear differential equation. We can solve it using an integrating factor.

Step 1: Write the differential equation in standard form. The standard form is dy/dx + P(x)y = Q(x). For the given differential equation y' = x + 7y, it is already in standard form with P(x) = 7 and Q(x) = x.

Step 2: Find the integrating factor e^(∫P(x) dx). Here, P(x) = 7, so ∫P(x) dx = ∫7 dx = 7x. Therefore, the integrating factor is e^(7x).

Step 3: Multiply every term of the equation by the integrating factor. This gives: e^(7x) dy/dx + 7e^(7x)y = xe^(7x).

Step 4: The left-hand side of this equation is now the derivative of (e^(7x)y) with respect to x. So, we can write the equation as: d/dx [e^(7x)y] = xe^(7x).

Step 5: Integrate both sides with respect to x. ∫d/dx [e^(7x)y] dx = ∫xe^(7x) dx. The left-hand side simplifies to e^(7x)y. The right-hand side integral can be solved by integration by parts (let u = x, dv = e^(7x) dx, then du = dx, v = e^(7x)/7), which gives: e^(7x)y = (1/7)xe^(7x) - (1/49)e^(7x) + C.

Step 6: Finally, solve for y by multiplying every term by e^(-7x), which gives: y = (1/7)x - (1/49) + Ce^(-7x). This is the general solution of the differential equation.

To solve the given initial value problem: \[ y' - y = 7te^{2t}, \quad y(0) = 1 \] we can use the method of integrating factors. The differential equation is a first-order linear differential equation of the form: \[ y' - y = 7te^{2t} \] First, we identify the integrating factor \( \mu(t) \): \[ \mu(t) = e^{\int -1 \, dt} = e^{-t} \] Next, we multiply both sides of the differential equation by the integrating factor: \[ e^{-t} y' - e^{-t} y = 7te^{2t} e^{-t} \] \[ e^{-t} y' - e^{-t} y = 7t e^{t} \] The left-hand side of the equation is the derivative of \( e^{-t} y \): \[ \frac{d}{dt} (e^{-t} y) = 7t e^{t} \] Now, we integrate both sides with respect to \( t \): \[ \int \frac{d}{dt} (e^{-t} y) \, dt = \int 7t e^{t} \, dt \] The left-hand side integrates to: \[ e^{-t} y \] For the right-hand side, we use integration by parts. Let: \[ u = t \quad \text{and} \quad dv = 7e^{t} \, dt \] \[ du = dt \quad \text{and} \quad v = 7e^{t} \] Then: \[ \int 7t e^{t} \, dt = 7t e^{t} - \int 7e^{t} \, dt \] \[ = 7t e^{t} - 7e^{t} \] \[ = 7e^{t} (t - 1) \] So, we have: \[ e^{-t} y = 7e^{t} (t - 1) + C \] Multiplying both sides by \( e^{t} \): \[ y = 7e^{t} (t - 1) e^{t} + C e^{t} \] \[ y = 7e^{2t} (t - 1) + C e^{t} \] Now, we use the initial condition \( y(0) = 1 \): \[ 1 = 7e^{0} (0 - 1) + C e^{0} \] \[ 1 = -7 + C \] \[ C = 8 \] Therefore, the solution to the initial value problem is: \[ y(t) = 7e^{2t} (t - 1) + 8e^{t} \] So, the final solution is: \[ y(t) = 7te^{2t} - 7e^{2t} + 8e^{t} \]
