Find the solution to the differential equation dydt 05 y 20
Find the solution to the differential equation
dy/dt= 0.5 (y ? 200)
if y=30 when t=0.
dy/dt= 0.5 (y ? 200)
if y=30 when t=0.
Solution
dy/dt= 0.5 (y 200)
if y=30 when t=0.
dy/(y-200) = 0.5 dt
take integration
ln(y-200) = 0.5t +C
y-200 = e^0.5t C
y = 200 + K e^0.5t
t = 0 y = 30
30 = 200 + K
K = 30 - 200 = -170
y = 200 -170 e^0.5t
