Review: (Regular) Equations
Example 1. 2𝑥 3 + 3𝑥 2 − 3𝑥 − 2 = 0
Is 𝑥 = 2 a solution?
No, because 2(2)3 +3(2)2 −3 2 − 2 = −4 ≠ 0.
Is 𝑥 = 1 a solution?
Yes, because 2(1)3 +3(1)2 −3(1) − 2 = 0.
What are all solutions?
1
Use algebra to find 𝑥 = 1, − 2 , −2.
Solve[2 x^3 + 3 x^2 - 3 x - 2 == 0, x]
Example 2. cos 𝜋𝑥 = 𝑥 2
Is 𝑥 = 1 a solution?
No, because cos 𝜋 = −1 ≠ 1 = (−1)2 .
What are all solutions?
Plot[{Cos[Pi*x], x^2}, {x, -2, 2}]
FindRoot[Cos[Pi*x] == x^2, {x, 0.4}]
{x -> 0.438431}
𝑥 ≈ ±0.438
Notice that a solutions for a regular equation is a number.

Definition: Solution to a Differential
Equation
A solution to a differential equation is a function such that when it and/or its
derivatives are substituted into the differential equation, the equation represents a
true statement.

Definition: Initial Value Problem
An initial value problem is a differential equation with an unknown function together
with the value of that function at some point
y  x  1, y 0   3
2
y  x 2  1, y 1  1
𝑦 = 13𝑥 3 − 𝑥 + 3 is a solution to the first initial value problem.
𝑦 = 1 is a solution to the second initial value problem.

Example
Radioactive carbon (carbon - 14) decays at a rate proportional to the amount
of carbon-14 present.

Example
A yam is placed inside a 200°F oven. The temperature of the yam increases at
a rate proportional to the difference between the oven temperature and its
temperature.
Let Y(𝑡) be the temperature (°F) of the yam 𝑡 minutes after placed in the oven.

Example
Morphine is administered to a patient intravenously at a rate of 2.5 mg per
hour. About 34.7% of the morphine is metabolized and leaves the body each
hour.
Let M(𝑡) be the amount (mg) of morphine in the body 𝑡 hours after it was
begun to be administered.
