1. Problem Description

We need to solve the differential equation (4x+y)2dxdy=1(4x+y)^2 \frac{dx}{dy} = 1.

2. Solution Steps

First, rewrite the equation as:
dxdy=1(4x+y)2\frac{dx}{dy} = \frac{1}{(4x+y)^2}
Now, let v=4x+yv = 4x+y. Then, differentiating with respect to yy, we get:
dvdy=4dxdy+1\frac{dv}{dy} = 4\frac{dx}{dy} + 1
Substituting dxdy=1v2\frac{dx}{dy} = \frac{1}{v^2} into the equation above, we have:
dvdy=4v2+1=4+v2v2\frac{dv}{dy} = \frac{4}{v^2} + 1 = \frac{4+v^2}{v^2}
v2v2+4dv=dy\frac{v^2}{v^2+4} dv = dy
Now, integrate both sides with respect to their respective variables:
v2v2+4dv=dy\int \frac{v^2}{v^2+4} dv = \int dy
We can rewrite the integrand as:
v2v2+4=v2+44v2+4=14v2+4\frac{v^2}{v^2+4} = \frac{v^2+4-4}{v^2+4} = 1 - \frac{4}{v^2+4}
So, the integral becomes:
(14v2+4)dv=dy\int (1 - \frac{4}{v^2+4}) dv = \int dy
1dv4v2+4dv=dy\int 1 dv - \int \frac{4}{v^2+4} dv = \int dy
v41v2+22dv=y+Cv - 4 \int \frac{1}{v^2+2^2} dv = y + C
Recall that 1x2+a2dx=1aarctan(xa)+C\int \frac{1}{x^2+a^2} dx = \frac{1}{a} \arctan(\frac{x}{a}) + C. In our case, a=2a=2, so:
v4(12arctan(v2))=y+Cv - 4 (\frac{1}{2} \arctan(\frac{v}{2})) = y + C
v2arctan(v2)=y+Cv - 2 \arctan(\frac{v}{2}) = y + C
Substituting v=4x+yv = 4x+y back into the equation:
4x+y2arctan(4x+y2)=y+C4x+y - 2 \arctan(\frac{4x+y}{2}) = y + C
4x2arctan(4x+y2)=C4x - 2 \arctan(\frac{4x+y}{2}) = C

3. Final Answer

4x2arctan(4x+y2)=C4x - 2 \arctan(\frac{4x+y}{2}) = C
