Seperable differential equations & solving
Put ouput variable on LHS and input on RHS
Times both side by dx and integrate (only RHS gets +C)
Make output variable subject of equation if possible

Linear differential equations & solving
Calculate I(x) = e∫P(x)dx (integrating factor)
[Multiply boths sides by I(x)]
Then: y = (1 / I(x)) * ∫ I(x) Q(x) dx
When calculating e∫P(x)dx no +C needed.

Word differential equations
Form LDE: eg. dy/dt = rate in - rate out → eg. dy/dt = input conc. decimal * rate1 - (y / (room volume)) * rate2
Solve LDE.
Differential equation notes
y’ = dy/dx & y’’ = d2y/dx2
“Initial value” is just values that should be used to find C.
For “solutions”, input into DE and see if equivalent.
