64 LESSON 8. HOMOGENEOUS EQUATIONS<br />

Substitut<strong>in</strong>g y ′ = (zt) ′ = tz ′ + z gives<br />

Cancel<strong>in</strong>g the z’s on both sides of the equation<br />

Integrat<strong>in</strong>g,<br />

S<strong>in</strong>ce z = y/t then y = tz, hence<br />

From the <strong>in</strong>itial condition y(1) = 2,<br />

t dz<br />

dt + z = z − 1 (8.29)<br />

dz<br />

dt = −1 t<br />

∫ ∫ dt<br />

dz = −<br />

t<br />

(8.30)<br />

(8.31)<br />

z = − ln t + C (8.32)<br />

y = t(C − ln t) (8.33)<br />

2 = (1)(C − ln 1) = C (8.34)<br />

Hence<br />

y = t(2 − ln t) (8.35)
