由
v=y−2x
得 y=v+2x,且
dxdy=dxdv+2.
把这些代入原方程后,利用
y−4x=v−2x
化简。

Given
v=y−2x,
we have
y=v+2x.
Differentiate:
dxdv=dxdy−2.
So
dxdy=dxdv+2.
Substitute into (I):
dxdv+2+2x(v+2x)(v+2x−4x)=2−8x3.
Since
v+2x−4x=v−2x,
we get
dxdv+2+2x(v+2x)(v−2x)=2−8x3.
Use difference of squares:
(v+2x)(v−2x)=v2−4x2.
Therefore
dxdv+2+2x(v2−4x2)=2−8x3.
Expand:
dxdv+2+2xv2−8x3=2−8x3.
Cancel 2−8x3 from both sides:
dxdv+2xv2=0.
Hence
dxdv=−2xv2.

(II) 是 separable differential equation:
dxdv=−2xv2.
把 v 放一边、x 放一边,然后积分。

From (II),
dxdv=−2xv2.
Separate the variables:
v21dxdv=−2x.
So
∫v−2dv=∫−2xdx.
Integrate:
−v−1=−x2+C.
Multiply by −1:
v1=x2+C.
Therefore
v=x2+C1.

由 v=y−2x 得 y=v+2x。把 (b) 的 v 代入即可。
答题过程

Since
v=y−2x,
we have
y=v+2x.
Using
v=x2+C1,
the general solution of (I) is
y=2x+x2+C1.
(d)

思路
展开
先用点 (−1,−1) 求出常数 C。得到具体曲线后,再判断渐近线。若
y=2x+x21,
则 x=0 是 vertical asymptote;当 ∣x∣ 很大时,x21→0,所以曲线接近斜线 y=2x。题目只要求 horizontal 或 vertical asymptotes,因此需要标出 x=0。
答题过程
展开
From part (c),
y=2x+x2+C1.
The curve passes through (−1,−1), so
−1==2(−1)+(−1)2+C1−2+1+C1.
Thus
1=1+C1.
So
C=0.
Hence the required solution curve is
y=2x+x21.
The vertical asymptote is
x=0.
There is no horizontal asymptote. As x→±∞,
y−2x=x21→0,
so the curve approaches the oblique asymptote y=2x.
For the sketch:
- one branch lies for x<0, passes through (−1,−1), and tends to +∞ as x→0−;
- the other branch lies for x>0, tends to +∞ as x→0+, then has a minimum in the first quadrant before rising again;
- mark the vertical asymptote x=0.
