Question:-

- We are given the following non-homogeneous ODE as follows:

- A general solution to the above ODE is also given as:

- We are to prove that every member of the family of curves defined by the above given function ( y ) is indeed a solution to the given ODE.

Solution:-

- To determine the validity of the solution we will first compute the first derivative of the given function ( y ) as follows. Apply the quotient rule.

- Now we will plug in the evaluated first derivative ( y' ) and function ( y ) into the given ODE and prove that right hand side is equal to the left hand side of the equality as follows:

- The equality holds true for all values of " C "; hence, the function ( y ) is the general solution to the given ODE.

- To determine the complete solution subjected to the initial conditions y (1) = 3. We would need the evaluate the value of constant ( C ) such that the solution ( y ) is satisfied as follows:

- Therefore, the complete solution to the given ODE can be expressed as:

- To determine the complete solution subjected to the initial conditions y (3) = 1. We would need the evaluate the value of constant ( C ) such that the solution ( y ) is satisfied as follows:

- Therefore, the complete solution to the given ODE can be expressed as:
