To solve the differential equation \[ \frac{d y}{d x} = x^{8} y^{4} - y = x, \] we can rewrite it in a more manageable form. The equation can be separated into two parts: 1. \( \frac{d y}{d x} = x^{8} y^{4} - y \) 2. \( = x \) This means we can set up the equation as: \[ x^{8} y^{4} - y - x = 0. \] This is a nonlinear first-order ordinary differential equation. We can rearrange it to isolate \( \frac{d y}{d x} \): \[ \frac{d y}{d x} = x^{8} y^{4} - y. \] Next, we can analyze the equation to see if it can be solved using separation of variables or another method. Let's proceed to solve this equation. 1. Rearranging gives us: \[ \frac{d y}{d x} + y = x^{8} y^{4}. \] This is a first-order nonlinear ordinary differential equation. To solve it, we can use a substitution or numerical methods, but first, let's check if we can find a particular solution or simplify it further. Let's analyze the equation further. We can try to find a solution by substituting \( y = kx \) for some constant \( k \) and see if it leads to a simpler form. Let's substitute \( y = kx \) into the equation and see if we can find a value for \( k \). Substituting gives: \[ \frac{d(kx)}{dx} = x^{8} (kx)^{4} - kx. \] This simplifies to: \[ k = x^{8} k^{4} x^{4} - kx. \] Now, let's simplify this equation. 1. The left side becomes \( k \). 2. The right side becomes \( k^{4} x^{12} - kx \). Setting both sides equal gives us: \[ k = k^{4} x^{12} - kx. \] This is a complex equation, and we can analyze it further or use numerical methods to find solutions. Let's proceed with numerical methods to find a solution for specific values of \( x \) and \( y \). Would you like to proceed with numerical methods or explore another approach?
