Show y′+(y²+y+1)/(x²+x+1)=0 has family x+y+1=A(1−x−y−2xy).
💡 Concept Hints
Identify the domain and the inner and outer functions, or the relevant one-sided limits.
Apply the appropriate differentiation or limit rule, keep all chain factors, and check exceptional points.
✅ Step-by-Step Solution
Final Answer: x+y+1=A(1−x−y−2xy), plus limiting member 1−x−y−2xy=0.
Separate dy/(y²+y+1)=−dx/(x²+x+1). Complete squares to integrate.
This gives tan⁻¹((2y+1)/√3)+tan⁻¹((2x+1)/√3)=C.
Taking the tangent and absorbing constants yields x+y+1=A(1−x−y−2xy).
The finite-A form misses the limiting family member 1−x−y−2xy=0, which also solves the ODE. The inverse-tangent relation is the fuller local description.
Differentiate the resulting relation to recover the equation on intervals where the original expressions and the required slope are defined.
