➢Solving First order Differential Equation
❖ Bernoulli ODE
➢ Higher Order Differential Equation
Bernoulli equations
The differential equation of the form
(1)
➢ Where n is any real number, is called Bernoulli’s equation.
➢ Note that for 𝑛 = 0 and 𝑛 = 1, equation is linear.
➢ The substitution 𝑢 = 𝑦1−𝑛 [ for 𝑛 ≠ 0 and 𝑛 ≠ 1 ] reduces any equation from (1)
to a linear equation.

Higher order DE
A linear nth-order differential equation of the form
is said to be homogeneous
with 𝑔(𝑥) not identically zero, is said to be nonhomogeneous.
For example,
is a homogeneous linear second-order DE
is a nonhomogeneous linear third-order DE
Differential Operators
𝑑𝑦
= 𝐷𝑦 . The symbol 𝐷 is called a differential operator
𝑑𝑥
Superposition principle For Homogeneous equation
Note
Linear dependence / independence
Wronskian
For linear independent solutions
General solution for Homogeneous DE
Example (1)
The functions 𝑦1 = 𝑒 3𝑥 and 𝑦2 = 𝑒 −3𝑥 are both solutions of the homogeneous linear
𝑦 ′′ − 9𝑦 = 0
𝑦 = 𝑐1 𝑒 3𝑥 + 𝑐2 𝑒 −3𝑥
is the general solution of the DE
Note: for the second order homogenous DE
In the form 1
Let 𝑦 𝑥 = 𝑦1 is a known solution of (1)
We define 𝑦 𝑥 = 𝑢 𝑦1 is a solution
