Solve the given differential equation by using an appropriate substitution. The DE is of the form dy/dx = f(Ax + By + C), which is given in (5) of Section 2.5. dy/dx = 4 + (y − 4x + 6)^1/2

dy/dx = 4 + √(y - 4x + 6)

Make a substitution of v(x) = y(x) - 4x + 6, so that dv/dx = dy/dx - 4. Then the DE becomes

dv/dx + 4 = 4 + √v

dv/dx = √v

which is separable as

dv/√v = dx

Integrating both sides gives

2√v = x + C

Get the solution back in terms of y :

2√(y - 4x + 6) = x + C

You can go on to solve for y explicitly if you want.

√(y - 4x + 6) = x/2 + C

y - 4x + 6 = (x/2 + C )²

y = 4x - 6 + (x/2 + C )²
