Homework Statement
This is just a nonlinear differential equation. All I have to do it solve it, though it is an initial value problem as well.
2*y*y' + y^{2} = t
Initial value:
y(0) = -1.
The Attempt at a Solution
This should be easy, but it doesn't seem easily separable to me. If you try separating it, then you end up with a integral of y^{2}dt, which doesn't seem right to me at all.
Maybe I'm missing something very fundamental?
And how do you get the Latex stuff to show up right? (sorry I'm new to trying to do Latex on a forum)
Thanks for any assistance. I know what I'm doing, I think, once I get started...
