An Education That Counts
Substitution methods are processes for transforming a given equation to reveal a particular structure. Substitution is a powerful technique for solving differential equations, particularly for those that cannot be solved using other methods. Bernoulli differential equations, which are a type of nonlinear first-order differential equation, can often be solved using substitution. This technique involves introducing a new variable and function that relates the original variables in a specific way. In this tutorial, we will explore the steps involved in solving differential equations by substitution, with a focus on Bernoulli differential equations.
Some differential equations may require a substation before we can determine how to solve them.
Homogenous Equations | Bernoulli’ Differential Equtions | Reduction to Separation of Variables |
\(M(x,y)dx+N(x,y)dy=0\) | \(\displaystyle\frac{dy}{dx}+P(x)y=f(x)y^n\) | \(\displaystyle\frac{dy}{dx}=f(Ax+By+C)\) |
