    General Solution of first order equation.

    Let a, b be continuous on R. Find the general solution of the equation

    \frac{dy}{dx} = a(x)y + b(x)y^2

    by solving the equation satisfied by u(x) = \frac{1}{y(x)}


    If someone could just give me a clue to point me in the right direction, it would be great.
    Thanks

    Bernoulli differential equation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This will help. There's also a bit about Bernoulli equations in the sticky thread at the top of this forum.
