Solve the initial value problem:

   dy
———  =  2xy²,      y = 2,  when x = – 1.
   dx

Separate the variables in the equation above:



Integrate both sides:





Take the reciprocal of both sides, and then you have



In order to find the value of  C₁  , just plug in the equation above those known values for  x  and  y, then solve it for  C₁:

y = 2,  when  x = – 1. So,





Substitute that for  C₁  into (i), and you have



So  y(– 2)  is



I hope this helps. =)
