What is a Differential Equation? • A differential equation is an equation that contains one or more derivatives. • Here’s a differential equation you have already solved: • y’ = 2x • What is the solution of this differential equation? MAT 146
What is a Solution to a Differential Equation? • A general solutionto a differential equation is a family of functions that satisfies a given differential equation. • A particular solutionto a differential equation (also called the solution to an initial-value problem) is a particular function that satisfies both a given differential equation and some specified ordered pair for the function. MAT 146
DE Warm-Ups • For the differential equation here, what are the constant solutions? • Solve this initial-value problem: MAT 146
Solve the differential equation graphically by generating a slope field and then sketching in a solution: y’ = 2x – y knowing that (0,0) satisfies y MAT 146
