Answer all questions. You should use a calculator where appropriate.
You must show all necessary working clearly; no marks will be given for unsupported answers from a calculator.
Give non-exact numerical answers correct to 3 significant figures, or 1 decimal place for angles in degrees, unless a different level of accuracy is specified in the question.
Here the logarithmic term comes from ∫x/(x2+3)dx, and the inverse tangent term from −2∫1/(x2+3)dx.
Using x=0, y=0,
−31=21ln3+C⟹C=−31−21ln3.
Multiplying the particular solution by −3 and combining logarithms,
e−3y=1−23ln(3x2+3)+23tan−13x.
Writing
H(x)=1−23ln(3x2+3)+23tan−13x,
the solution is
y=−31lnH(x).
This solution applies on the interval containing x=0 where the outer logarithmic argument is positive. It remains positive up to x=2: its derivative is −3(x−2)/(x2+3)⩾0 on [0,2], and its initial value is 1.
