Tricky question to set up the DE for... probably easy to solve
Find all curves in the first quadrant such that for any point, the segment of the tangent going from the y intercept to the x intercept is bisected by the point of tangency.
Here's my thoughts ...
Let
be the point of tangency.
The tangent has the equation +y_0)
The condition that the segment of the tangent going from the y-intercept to the x-intercept be bisected at the point of tangency means:
=-\left.\frac{dy}{dx}\right\vert_{x_0}x_0+y_0=2y_0 \leftrightarrow y_0=-\left.\frac{dy}{dx}\right\vert_{x_0}x_0)
... or putting
gives the same.
Now I'm stuck.
Thanks for any help!
