Variation of parameters
First, solve the linear homogeneous equation by separating variables.
Rearranging terms in the equation gives
Now, the variables are separated, x appears only on the right side, and y only on the left.
Integrate the left side in relation to y, and the right side in relation to x
Let’s solve the integral on the right side.
Therefore,
By taking exponents, we obtain
Hence,we obtain
where
Next, we need to find the particular solution
Therefore, we consider
Let’s assume that
Write the equation in the standard form (divide it by x 4 0)
Substituting
