Module Chapter 2 Variable Separable Differential Equation

The document discusses differential equations, defining them as equations relating variables and derivatives. It explains the concepts of order and degree for differential equations and describes separable differential equations and methods for solving them, including separating variables and integrating both sides. Examples are provided to illustrate finding general and particular solutions to separable differential equations using these integration techniques.

A differential equation (DE) is an


equation which relates an independent or
dependent variable with one or more
derivatives.
EXAMPLES :
a) define differential equations,
b) understand degree, order and solution,
c) define separable differential equations,
d) solve separable differential equations. A solution for a DE is a function that is
independent from derivatives and
satisfy the differential equation.
DEFINITION : Two types of solution for
Order is the highest derivative in a
