Variations in the Solution of Linear First-Order Differential Equations. Classroom Notes
Seaman, Brian; Osler, Thomas J.
International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, v35 n2 p309-315 Jan 2004
A special project which can be given to students of ordinary differential equations is described in detail. Students create new differential equations by changing the dependent variable in the familiar linear first-order equation (dv/dx)+p(x)v=q(x) by means of a substitution v=f(y). The student then creates a table of the new equations and describes how they are solved. Applications are also given.
