y = 3x 2 (y 2 + 1) (i) Prove that y = tan(x 3 + C) is a general solution of the equation. (ii) Find a particular solution satisfying the initial condition y (0) = 1. Answer: (i) Substitute y and y = 3x 2 sec2 (x 3 + C). Then we have 3x 2 sec2 (x 3 + C) = 3x 2 (tan2 (x 3 + C) + 1) 3x 2 sec2 (x 3 + C) = 3x 2 sec2 (x 3 + C) which is true for all x R and C R. Answer: (ii) 1 = tan(0 + C) = C = + k , k Z. 4 Due to the periodicity of tan for all values of k Z we obtain the same function. For simplicity, choose k = 0. Then the required particular solution is y = tan x 3 + 4
