Step-by-step solution
Let the given differential equation be
(1−x2)dy=[xy+(x3+2)3(1−x2)]dx
The domain for x is −1<x<1.
Rearrange the equation into the standard linear first-order differential equation form, dxdy+P(x)y=Q(x):
Divide by dx:
(1−x2)dxdy=xy+(x3+2)3(1−x2)
Divide by (1−x2):
dxdy=1−x2xy+1−x2(x3+2)3(1−x2)dxdy−1−x2xy=1−x2(x3+2)3
Here, P(x)=−1−x2x and Q(x)=1−x2(x3+2)3.
Calculate the integrating factor (IF), which is e∫P(x)dx:
∫P(x)dx=∫−1−x2xdx
Let u=1−x2, so du=−2xdx⟹xdx=−21du.
∫−1−x2xdx=∫u1⋅21du=21ln∣u∣=21ln(1−x2) (since 1−x2>0 for −1<x<1)
∫P(x)dx=ln((1−x2)1/2)=ln(1−x2).
So, the integrating factor is IF=eln(1−x2)=1−x2.
Multiply the differential equation by the integrating factor:
1−x2(dxdy−1−x2xy)=1−x2(1−x2(x3+2)3)dxd(y1−x2)=(x3+2)3
Integrate both sides with respect to x:
∫dxd(y1−x2)dx=∫(x3+2)3dxy1−x2=3(4x4+2x)+C
Use the initial condition y(0)=0 to find the constant C:
0⋅1−02=3(404+2(0))+C0=0+C⟹C=0.
The particular solution is:
y1−x2=3(4x4+2x)y(x)=1−x23(4x4+2x)
We need to find y(21)=nm:
Substitute x=21:
y(21)=1−(1/2)23(4(1/2)4+2(1/2))y(21)=1−1/43(41/16+1)y(21)=3/43(641+1)y(21)=233(641+64)y(21)=233(6465)y(21)=6465⋅12=3265
So, y(21)=3265. This means m=65 and n=32.
We need to verify if m and n are coprime numbers.
Prime factorization of 65=5×13.
Prime factorization of 32=25.
Since there are no common prime factors, 65 and 32 are coprime.
Finally, calculate m+n:
m+n=65+32=97.
The final answer is 97.
