What is the solution of dy/dx = (x^2+y^2)/(xy)

The differential equation `dy/dx = (x^2+y^2)/(xy)` has to be solved.


`dy/dx = (x^2+y^2)/(xy)`


This can be written as


`dy/dx = x^2/(xy) + y^2/(xy)`


`dy/dx = x/y + y/x`


`dy/dx = (y/x)^-1 + y/x`


Let `f = y/x`


`y = f*x`



`dy/dx = f + x*(df)/(dx) `


Now substituting for `dy/dx` and `y/x` in the equation we get


`f + x*(df)/(dx) = f^-1 + f`


`x*(df)/(dx) = 1/f`


`f*df = dx/x`


Take the integral of both the sides


`int f*df = int dx/x`


`f^2/2 = ln x + C`


The constant C can be included in the logarithm of x as `ln(k*x)`


`(y/x)^2/2 = ln(k*x)`


`y^2 = 2*x^2*ln(k*x)`


`y = +-sqrt(2*x^2*ln(k*x))`


The solution of the differential equation `dy/dx = (x^2+y^2)/(xy)` is `y = +-sqrt(2*x^2*ln(k*x))`
