A problem on Integrating Factor

Topic:Integrating Factor

In simple term integrating factor in mathematics, is an function that is chosen to facilitate
the solving of a given equation involving differentials. It is generally used to solve ordinary differential equations, but is also used within multivitamin calculus,in this case often multiplying through by an integrating factor allows an inexact differential to be made into an exact differential (which can then be integrated to give a scalar field).
In simple term integrating factor is denoted as I.F.

Question:
   
           dy
solve     ____ + = ex
           dx

Answer:

   Standard form: dy
                 ____ + p(x) * y = q(x)    Here p(x) = 1
                  dx                            q(x) = ex


 Now Inergrating factor = e√pdx = e√idx = ex

 Now the equation is:

                     y = i
                        ___
                        I.F  √I.F * Q(x) dx + c

Plugging in all the values:

                     y = 1
                        ___
                         ex √(ex * ex) dx + c

                     y = 1
                        ___
                         ex √(ex)2 dx + c

                     y = 1 * e2x
                        ___ ___ + c
                        (ex) 2

                     y = ex
                        ___ + c
                         2

Equation of Circle Passing Through Point (-1,-9)

Topic : Equation of Circle

Question : Write the Standard from of the equation of the circle that passes through the given point (-1,-9) and whose center is the origin.

Solution :
The Standard equation of the circle with center at origin (0,0) is x² + y² = r²
r being its radius as x² + y² = r² passes through (-1,-9) we have
(-1)² + (-9)² = r²
or
r² = 1 + 81 = 82
So the required circle is x² + y² = 82
