Find the domain and range of the function that is the solution to the differential equation

\(\dfrac{d y}{d x}=e^{x+y}\)

and whose graph passes through the origin.   (4 marks)

\(\text{Domain:}\ \ x<\ln 2\)

\(\text{Range:}\ \ y>-\ln 2\)

Show Worked Solution

\(\dfrac{d y}{d x}=e^{x+y}=e^{x}\cdot e^{y}\)

  \(\displaystyle\int e^{-y}\, d y\) \(=\displaystyle \int e^x\, d x\)
  \(-e^{-y}\) \(=e^x+c\)

 
\(\text{Passes through }(0,0):\)

\(-e^0=e^0+c \ \Rightarrow \ c=-2\)

  \(-e^{-y}\) \(=e^x-2\)
  \(e^{-y}\) \(=2-e^x\)
  \(-y\) \(=\ln \left(2-e^x\right)\)
  \(y\) \(=-\ln \left(2-e^x\right)\)

\(\text{Since}\ \ 2-e^x>0 \ \Rightarrow \ e^x<2\)

\(\Rightarrow \ \text{Domain:}\ \ x<\ln 2\)

\(\text{Since}\ \ e^x>0 \ \Rightarrow \ 2-e^x<2\)

\(\Rightarrow \ \text{Range:}\ \ y>-\ln 2\)

\(y=e^{\frac{x^2}{2}}\)

Show Worked Solution

  \(\dfrac{d y}{d x}\) \(=x y\)
  \(\displaystyle\int \frac{1}{y}\, d y\) \(=\displaystyle\int x\, d x\)
  \(\ln y\) \(=\dfrac{1}{2} x^2+c\)
  \(y\) \(=e^{\frac{x^2}{2}+c}\)
    \(=e^{\frac{x^2}{2}} \cdot e^c\)
    \(=A e^{\frac{x^2}{2}} \text{ (where \(A=e^c)\)}\)

 
\(\therefore y=e^{\frac{x^2}{2}}\ \  \text{is a solution } (A=1)\)
