Question 61

MediumOriginal question

What is the general solution of $\frac{dy}{dx} = e^{x + y}$ ?

e^x - e^{-y} = C

Correct answerYour answer

e^x + e^{-y} = C

Correct answerYour answer

e^{x + y} = C

Correct answerYour answer

e^y = e^x + C

Correct answerYour answer

CorrectNot quiteAnswer B

Correct answer: B

Separate the variables, with every $y$ on the side of $dy$ and every $x$ on the side of $dx$ .
Integrating both sides and collecting the constants gives $e^x + e^{-y} = C$ .

Worth noting

Check an answer by differentiating it: it must give back the equation.
