Having problems solving this diff equation.
(1-x^2)y´+ xy = x for -1 < x < 1
I get the ínt factor to 1/(1-x^2)^0,5, But having problems after that.
Thank you.

does post #21 here help?
Hello again
Not really,,I understand the general approach to solving a diff equation its just that I cant get the right side to be a single derivate. having problems there.
Im sorry, I meant the left side =)
ok, so following the steps exactly, you would end up with
again, just following the steps i outlined (we literally don't have to think about this if we know the steps by heart), this becomes
now integrate both sides and continue
look closely at the steps and see what is confusing you. the single derivative is simply the coefficient of y' times y.
Oh,, I did exatly that but I thought it was wrong. Thank you very much.
I messed up when I multiplied the coefficient of y' and y. I Do that to check that im on the right track but this time it turned out bad =(.
