I don't understand why General solution is lambda/1+x and not exp(-(integral of 1/1+x))

It is an easy one

#

I just don't get it

fathom pasture
#

Ummm...

#

Just asking, what grade are you right now mate?

flint timber
#

I am not in US

#

Not the same shit

fathom pasture
#

Are you on High school mate?

flint timber
#

no haha

#

higher level

fathom pasture
#

So???

flint timber
#

I am in classe préparatoire aux grandes écoles PCSI

#

I don't have same classes as you

fathom pasture
#

...

flint timber
#

I told you

fathom pasture
#

Lemme guess...

flint timber
#

same as highest level of calculus, algebra, and analytics etc for you

fathom pasture
#

You're...in college?

flint timber
#

I am still in high school

#

just not an highschooler

#

lol

fathom pasture
#

Ohhh

#

I see

flint timber
#

I am studying in an highschool

#

doing a higher level than college maths

fathom pasture
#

That's good btw

flint timber
#

In france we call that a preparatory class for highest level school

#

you know Ecole polytechnique or even ENS Ulm

fathom pasture
#

You know mate...
Im still 9th grade 💀
But, after i looked around me...math is incredible! And fun!

flint timber
#

A highschooler could solve my shit

#

I just don't understand lol, my brain is fried

fathom pasture
#

Where did you get this question from?

flint timber
#

see I just solved my shit

#

I am a dumb fuck

#

Just understood

flint timber
#

What was the question you needed ?

#

euler identity ?

fathom pasture
#

Yes

flint timber
#

what don't you understand ?

fathom pasture
#

Im still studying about that

flint timber
#

not the answer I was looking for

fathom pasture
#

Ik

flint timber
#

what don't you get then

fathom pasture
#

I forgot...ummm...
Ouh. The Taylor

flint timber
#

?

fathom pasture
#

I just don't understand about taylor series

flint timber
#

that ?

fathom pasture
#

Yup

flint timber
#

it is a generalization of nth square root

#

for n> 1

#

and euler identity is when e =2

fathom pasture
#

Wait.

#

I just... remember something

flint timber
#

rest I can't explain, it is too high level for me

#

it goes into 4th dimension

fathom pasture
#

$e^x = \sum_{i = 0}^\infty \frac{x^n}{n!}$

#

Do you know about this?

#

I just got it from my mind

#

Is it true?

flint timber
#

it is

#

just did it ^^

main kernel
#

it's not, the general solution has a log term

flint timber
#

no

main kernel
#

$\dv{y}{x}+\frac{1}{1+x}y=\frac{1+\ln(1+x)}{1+x}$, integrating factor is $\mu(x)=\exp(\int\frac{1}{1+x}\dd{x})=1+x$, so $\dv{x}[(1+x)y]=1+\ln(1+x)$

mortal bobcatBOT
#

Omegabet_

main kernel
#

hence $(1+x)y=\int 1+\ln(1+x)\dd{x}=x+(x+1)\ln(x+1)-x+C=(1+x)\ln(1+x)+C$

mortal bobcatBOT
#

Omegabet_

main kernel
#

so $y=\ln(1+x)+\frac{C}{1+x}$, look at that log term

mortal bobcatBOT
#

Omegabet_

main kernel
#

as for why you didnt get the log term in your general solution, you did something wrong.

fathom pasture
#

@main kernel what is dy & dx means?

main kernel
#

dy/dx is the derivative of y wrt x...

#

take calc1 before trying to solve ODEs

main kernel
# flint timber

also that has nothing to do with Taylor series tbh, it's just Vieta's results applied to z^n-1

#

also I assume the radio silence on your part is you digesting the solution given

flint timber
#

@main kernel

#

I got $\frac{C}{1+x}+(1+x)ln(1+x)}$

flint timber
#

I don't know why I still have the 1+x

#

in factor

main kernel
#

idk either

#

cause I see no work

flint timber
#

not redacted tho

#

don't know if you will understand

main kernel
#

oh you're doing variation of parameters?

flint timber
#

Yes

#

I just suck damn

#

i don't get ittttt

main kernel
#

so you have $y_p(x)=\frac{1}{1+x}\lambda(x)\to \lambda(x)=(1+x)\ln(1+x)$

mortal bobcatBOT
#

Omegabet_

main kernel
#

hence $y_p(x)=\ln(1+x)$ since $\frac{1+x}{1+x}=1$

mortal bobcatBOT
#

Omegabet_

main kernel
#

the particular solution isnt just lambda, it's (1/(1+x))lambda in this instance

flint timber
#

yes

#

but so it is general + particular

#

hence lambda/1+x + (x+1)ln(1+x)

#

either it should be lmabda + ln(1+x)

#

i don't get why it is what you said

#

even tho it is true

main kernel
#

recall how variation of parameters works

flint timber
main kernel
#

you find the homogeneous solution, which was $y_h=\frac{C}{1+x}$

mortal bobcatBOT
#

Omegabet_

flint timber
#

yes

main kernel
#

then you guess that the particular solution is of the form $y_p=y_h\lambda$

mortal bobcatBOT
#

Omegabet_

flint timber
#

yes

#

then derivate

#

then plug in equation

main kernel
#

to which the general solution is $y=y_h+y_p$

mortal bobcatBOT
#

Omegabet_

main kernel
#

you found $\lambda=(1+x)\ln(1+x)$ and $y_h=\frac{1}{1+x}$

mortal bobcatBOT
#

Omegabet_

main kernel
#

so what's $y_p$?

mortal bobcatBOT
#

Omegabet_

flint timber
#

maths lore is cool, maths gameplay just sucks

#

let me do it all over again for the third time

#

third time's the charm

main kernel
#

you didnt do anything wrong in your working, you just plugged in lambda for your particular solution, not y_h*lambda

flint timber
#

@main kernel

main kernel
#

yeah, so what's the particular solution?

flint timber
#

Guess I should stop maths forever

main kernel
#

there you go

flint timber
#

How bad am I bruh

main kernel
#

and no lol, making a mistake doesnt mean you stop forever

flint timber
#

Good redaction ?

flint timber
main kernel
#

so?

flint timber
#

How can i pretend at high level failing at this

main kernel
#

cause higher level doesnt really do computations

flint timber
#

computation ?

main kernel
#

yeah, solving ODEs is computation

flint timber
#

Oh

#

That’s for physics

#

This ain’t pure maths

main kernel
#

or for computers

flint timber
#

I don’t do that in maths

#

i do pre hilbertian space

#

and shit like that

main kernel
#

pre hilbert spaces specifically seems like a weird niche but ok

flint timber
#

Wait

#

here is what I do

#

thats my program

main kernel
#

that's just a vector space w/ an inner product, you usually care about hilbert spaces in which the induced norm makes the space complete

#

ok yeah, just defining the notion of inner products

flint timber
#

I am still at really low level maths

#

I can’t afford doing mistakes like that that’s just why am disappointed

#

anyway, going back to that physics shit

main kernel
#

then you just take your time until the algorithms/steps are crystal blobshrug

#

your mistake was just forgetting how the particular solution was constructed, the actual work was all correct

flint timber
#

what is your maths level

main kernel
#

Im going into my 4th year at uni

@flint timber forgot to ping w/ the reply
