I need help pleasee. Thank you for the help in advance! I greatly appreciate it :)

So for number 1, is it as simple as it seems. I plug in the x and y into xy/3 and get all the values of dy/dx?

Sure, I'd be happy to help! Let's start by finding the values of dy/dx for each corresponding set of x and y values in the table.

x -1 -1 -1 0 0 0 1 1 1
y 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3
dy/dx ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

To find dy/dx, we can substitute the given x and y values into the differential equation dx = xy/3. Let's calculate each dy/dx:

For x = -1 and y = 1:
dy/dx = (-1) * (1) / 3 = -1 / 3

For x = -1 and y = 2:
dy/dx = (-1) * (2) / 3 = -2 / 3

For x = -1 and y = 3:
dy/dx = (-1) * (3) / 3 = -3 / 3 = -1

For x = 0 and y = 1:
dy/dx = (0) * (1) / 3 = 0

For x = 0 and y = 2:
dy/dx = (0) * (2) / 3 = 0

For x = 0 and y = 3:
dy/dx = (0) * (3) / 3 = 0

For x = 1 and y = 1:
dy/dx = (1) * (1) / 3 = 1 / 3

For x = 1 and y = 2:
dy/dx = (1) * (2) / 3 = 2 / 3

For x = 1 and y = 3:
dy/dx = (1) * (3) / 3 = 3 / 3 = 1

Now the table of values for the derivative dy/dx looks like this:

x -1 -1 -1 0 0 0 1 1 1
y 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3
dy/dx -1/3 -2/3 -1 0 0 0 1/3 2/3 1

To find the particular solution y = f(x) with the initial condition f(0) = 4, we can integrate the differential equation dx = xy/3:

dy/y = x dx/3

Integrating both sides:

ln|y| = (1/6) x^2 + C

Using the initial condition f(0) = 4, we can solve for C:

ln|4| = (1/6) (0)^2 + C
ln|4| = C

So the value of C is ln|4|. Plugging this back into the equation, we get:

ln|y| = (1/6) x^2 + ln|4|

To find y = f(x), we can exponentiate both sides:

|y| = 4 * e^((1/6) x^2)

Since y > 0, we can remove the absolute value:

y = 4 * e^((1/6) x^2)

Therefore, the particular solution to the given differential equation with the initial condition f(0) = 4 is y = 4 * e^((1/6) x^2).

To complete the table of values, we need to substitute each x value into the given differential equation and solve for dy/dx.

For x = -1, we have y = 1. Substituting these values into the equation dx = xy/3, we get:

(-1) * (1) / 3 = -1/3.

So, dy/dx = -1/3 when x = -1.

Similarly, we can find the values for the other x values:

For x = 0, y = 1, substituting into the equation:
(0) * (1) / 3 = 0.
So, dy/dx = 0 when x = 0.

For x = 1, y = 1, substituting into the equation:
(1) * (1) / 3 = 1/3.
So, dy/dx = 1/3 when x = 1.

Now, to find the particular solution y = f(x) with the initial condition f(0) = 4, we need to integrate the given differential equation.

The given equation is dx = xy/3. Rearranging, we get:
dx/x = y/3 * dy.

Integrating both sides with respect to x:

∫(1/x) dx = ∫(y/3) dy.

ln|x| = (y^2)/6 + C, where C is the constant of integration.

Applying the initial condition f(0) = 4, we have x = 0 and y = 4:

ln|0| = (4^2)/6 + C.

As the natural logarithm of zero is undefined, we cannot substitute x = 0 into the equation. Instead, we need to use the limit:

lim(x->0) ln|x| = (4^2)/6 + C.

Since ln|x| approaches negative infinity as x approaches 0 from the left and approaches positive infinity as x approaches 0 from the right, we have:

-ln(0) = lim(x->0^-) ln|x| = (4^2)/6 + C.
ln(0) = lim(x->0^+) ln|x| = (4^2)/6 + C.

Therefore, C = -infinity.

Hence, the particular solution y = f(x) to the given differential equation with the initial condition f(0) = 4 is:

ln|x| = (y^2)/6 - infinity.

Please note that due to the undefined nature of the logarithm at x = 0, we cannot find a particular value for y when x = 0.

To complete the table of values for dy/dx, we can use the given differential equation dx = xy/3. We'll substitute the corresponding values of x and y into the equation and simplify to find dy/dx.

For each row in the table, calculate dy/dx using the given values of x and y:

Row 1: When x = -1 and y = 1,
dx = (-1)(1)/3 = -1/3.

Row 2: When x = -1 and y = 2,
dx = (-1)(2)/3 = -2/3.

Row 3: When x = -1 and y = 3,
dx = (-1)(3)/3 = -1.

Row 4: When x = 0 and y = 1,
dx = (0)(1)/3 = 0.

Row 5: When x = 0 and y = 2,
dx = (0)(2)/3 = 0.

Row 6: When x = 0 and y = 3,
dx = (0)(3)/3 = 0.

Row 7: When x = 1 and y = 1,
dx = (1)(1)/3 = 1/3.

Row 8: When x = 1 and y = 2,
dx = (1)(2)/3 = 2/3.

Row 9: When x = 1 and y = 3,
dx = (1)(3)/3 = 1.

Now that we have the values of dy/dx for each x and y, let's find the particular solution y = f(x) with the initial condition f(0) = 4.

The given differential equation is dx = xy/3. To find the particular solution, we'll use separation of variables and integrate both sides.

dx = xy/3
dy/dx = y/3x

Separating variables,
dy/y = dx/3x

Integrating both sides,
∫(dy/y) = ∫(dx/3x)

ln|y| = (1/3)ln|x| + C

Applying the initial condition f(0) = 4,
ln|4| = (1/3)ln|0| + C
ln|4| = C

Therefore, C = ln|4|.

The particular solution is:
ln|y| = (1/3)ln|x| + ln|4|
ln|y| = ln|4x^(1/3)|
y = 4x^(1/3)

Thus, the particular solution to the differential equation with the initial condition f(0) = 4 is y = 4x^(1/3).

#1. Really?? Given x and y, you can't compute xy/3?

I'm assuming that you meant
dy/dx = xy/3
dy/y = x/3 dx
ln y = 1/6 x^2 + ln c
y = c*e^(1/6 x^2)
Since y(0) = 4, c = 4 and so
y = 4e^(1/6 x^2)

to check, just take the derivative and verify that it equals xy/3.
