What best describes any solution to this differential equation?

  1. The solution is periodic.
  2. The solution has a single root.
  3. The limit as x approaches infinity of any solution y(x) is a finite number.
  4. The solution is a polynomial.


Answers, problem 3

Separate the differential equatoin and integrate both sides.

The solution is

And the sketch of this function is shown:

Therefore the answer is:

  1. The limit as x approaches infinity of any solution y(x) is a finite number.
