Let y = y(x) be the solution of the differential
equation xdy = (y + x3 cosx)dx with y($\pi$) = 0, then $y\left( {{\pi \over 2}} \right)$ is equal to :
Solution
$xdy = (y + {x^3}\cos x)dx$<br><br>$\Rightarrow$ $xdy = ydx + {x^3}\cos xdx$<br><br>$\Rightarrow$ ${{xdy - ydx} \over {{x^2}}} = {{{x^3}coxdx} \over {{x^2}}}$<br><br>$\Rightarrow$ ${d \over {dx}}\left( {{y \over x}} \right) = \int {x\cos xdx}$<br><br>$\Rightarrow {y \over x} = x\sin x - \int {1.\sin xdx}$<br><br>$\Rightarrow$ ${y \over x} = x\sin x + \cos x + C$<br><br>$\Rightarrow 0 = - 1 + C \Rightarrow C = 1,x = \pi ,y = 0$<br><br>so, ${y \over x} = x\sin x + \cos x + 1$<br><br>$y = {x^2}\sin x + x\cos x + x$<br><br>$x = {\pi \over 2}$<br><br>$y\left( {{\pi \over 2}} \right) = {{{\pi ^2}} \over 4} + {\pi \over 2}$
