Let p=y/x, then p'=dp/dx=y'/x-y/x^2.

y"+y'/x-y/x^2=0=y"+p' so y"=-p'.

Integrating: y'=-y/x.

So dy/dx=-y/x; dy/y=-dx/x and ln(y)=-ln(x)+C, ln(y)+ln(x)=C or xy=A, a constant (A=e^C).

y(1)=1 so A=1 and xy=1. y(r)=1/r=n.

CHECK

xy=1 so y=1/x=x^-1; y'=-x^-2=-1/x^2; y"=2x^-3.

So y"+y'/x-y/x^2=(2x^-3)-(x^-3)-(x^-3)=0. OK.

OH, your to late! Anonymous probably went to http://brainly.com, so huh...
HEY ROD! YOU SELECTED YOURSELF DIDN'T YOU!? TELL THE TRUTH!
OK. I'll tell you the truth. I didn't select my answer. Someone else did.

I just found out who selected Best Answer. It's in my email notifications and it was at 6:20am my time yesterday (Wednesday 21 December). It's still Wednesday for you so that makes it 1.20am your time. It was anonymous so it was probably the person who posted the question. (Thank you whoever you are.)

And, no, my intention wasn't to steal anything from you; someone needed help and in this case I was able to provide it.

Well I got nothing from returne I tried to help but ugh, you always get the best answers...

if you want help faster, go to http://brainly.com and you'll able to get your question answered.

Thank you for using Mathhomeworkanswers. smiley
