Solving Differential Equations with Mathematica's Solver

(continued fromÌýlast page...)

Here's another, more complicatedÌýexactÌýdifferential equation to solve:

(yexyÌý- 1/y)dxÌý+ (xexyÌý+Ìýx/y2)dyÌý= 0

Be careful as you enter it intoÌýMathematica, making sure you get your parentheses in the correct places. Go ahead and switch now, returning here when you're done. (Don't be surprised if you get an error message on this one.)

Now what was that error message all about? Let's go on andÌýdiscuss it...
