Answer

The solution isy=(t-1)et+C1+et .

 

1Step 1: Evaluate whether the equation is exact

Here  ety - tdt + 1 + etdy = 0

 

The condition for exact is My=Nt.

 

M(t,y)=et(y-t)N(t,y)=(1+et)

 My=et=Nt


 This equation is exact.

2Step 2: Find the value of F (x, t)

Here

 

M(t,y)=et(y-t)F(t,y)=M(t,y)dt+g(y)=et(y-t)dt+g(y)=ety-ett+et+g(y)

3Step 3: Determine the value of g(y)

Fy(t,y)=N(t,y)et+g'(y)=1+etg'(y)=1g(y)=y+C1

Now  F(t,y) = ety - ett + et + y + C1

The general solution of the differential equation is y=(t-1)et+C1+et

 

Hence the solution is  y=(t-1)et+C1+et
