Let's solve the problem step-by-step. --- ### **Step 1: Solve the differential equation for both regions** The equation is: \[ \frac{dy}{dx} + \frac{2y}{x} = f(x) \] where \[ f(x) = \begin{cases} 7x^4 & 0 < x < 2 \\ 25x^2 + 12 & 2 < x \end{cases} \] This is a first-order linear ODE. The integrating factor is: \[ \mu(x) = \exp\left(\int \frac{2}{x} dx\right) = x^2 \] Multiplying both sides by \(x^2\): \[ x^2 \frac{dy}{dx} + 2x y = x^2 f(x) \] \[ \frac{d}{dx}(x^2 y) = x^2 f(x) \] **For \(0 < x < 2\):** \[ \frac{d}{dx}(x^2 y) = x^2 \cdot 7x^4 = 7x^6 \] Integrate both sides: \[ x^2 y = \int 7x^6 dx = 7 \cdot \frac{x^7}{7} = x^7 + C_1 \] \[ y = \frac{x^7 + C_1}{x^2} \] **For \(2 < x\):** \[ \frac{d}{dx}(x^2 y) = x^2 (25x^2 + 12) = 25x^4 + 12x^2 \] Integrate both sides: \[ x^2 y = \int (25x^4 + 12x^2) dx = 25 \cdot \frac{x^5}{5} + 12 \cdot \frac{x^3}{3} + C_2 = 5x^5 + 4x^3 + C_2 \] \[ y = \frac{5x^5 + 4x^3 + C_2}{x^2} \] **Explanation**: We solved the ODE separately for each region using the method for first-order linear equations and integrating factor. --- ### **Step 2: Apply the initial condition and ensure continuity** Given: \(y(1) = 13\) For \(0 < x < 2\): \[ y = \frac{x^7 + C_1}{x^2} \] Plug \(x = 1\): \[ 13 = \frac{1^7 + C_1}{1^2} = 1 + C_1 \implies C_1 = 12 \] So, \[ y = \frac{x^7 + 12}{x^2}, \quad 0 < x < 2 \] For \(2 < x\): \[ y = \frac{5x^5 + 4x^3 + C_2}{x^2} \] To ensure continuity at \(x = 2\), set both expressions equal at \(x = 2\): \[ \frac{2^7 + 12}{2^2} = \frac{5(2^5) + 4(2^3) + C_2}{2^2} \] Calculate: - \(2^7 = 128\) - \(2^2 = 4\) - \(2^5 = 32\) - \(2^3 = 8\) Left side: \(\frac{128 + 12}{4} = \frac{140}{4} = 35\) Right side: \(\frac{5 \times 32 + 4 \times 8 + C_2}{4} = \frac{160 + 32 + C_2}{4} = \frac{192 + C_2}{4}\) Set equal: \[ 35 = \frac{192 + C_2}{4} \implies 140 = 192 + C_2 \implies C_2 = 140 - 192 = -52 \] So, \[ y = \frac{5x^5 + 4x^3 - 52}{x^2}, \quad 2 < x \] **Explanation**: We applied the initial condition to find \(C_1\) and used continuity at \(x = 2\) to find \(C_2\). --- ## **Final Answer** The continuous solution is: \[ y(x) = \begin{cases} \frac{x^7 + 12}{x^2} & 0 < x < 2 \\ \frac{5x^5 + 4x^3 - 52}{x^2} & 2 < x \end{cases} \] Yes, a continuous solution exists.
