Ass 1
(a) Find/state all the values of the constant C so that y(x) = C for all x is a constant solution of the
ODE.
(b) Solve the stated ODE as an initial value problem with y(0) = π/8.
(c) For the solution in (b) what is limx→+∞ y(x) and limx→−∞ y(x)?
(a) By making a suitable change of variables find the general solution (as an implicit solution).
(b) Hence, find an explicit solution for the ODE with the initial condition y(0) = −1.
