You have learned to analyze visually the solutions of differential equations using slope fields and to approximate solutions numerically using Euler's Method. You have solved equations of the form y' = f(x) and y'' = f(x) Now you will learn to solve using the separation of variables method.
Separation of Variables Method Rewrite equation so that each variable occurs on only one side of the equation. -
