Question
For the following differntial equations verify that the accompanying function is a solution:
Differential equation Function
$\text{x}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\text{y}=\text{y}^2$ $\text{y}=\frac{\text{a}}{\text{x}+\text{a}}$

Answer

We have

$\text{y}=\frac{\text{a}}{\text{x}+\text{a}}$

$\Rightarrow\text{xy}+\text{ay}=\text{a}$

$\Rightarrow\text{xy}=\text{a}(1-\text{y})$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{xy}}{1-\text{y}}=\text{a}$

Given differential equation $\text{x}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\text{y}=\text{y}^2$

Differentiating both sides of (1) with respect to x, we get

$\frac{\text{xy}\Big(0-\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)-(1-\text{y})\Big(\text{x}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\text{y}\Big)}{(\text{xy})^2}=0$

$\Rightarrow\text{xy}\Big(-\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}\Big)-(1-\text{y})\Big(\text{x}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\text{y}\Big)=0$

$\Rightarrow-\text{xy}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}-\text{x}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}-\text{y}+\text{xy}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\text{y}^2=0$

$\Rightarrow-\text{x}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}-\text{y}+\text{y}^2=0$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}\frac{\text{dy}}{\text{dx}}+\text{y}=\text{y}^2$

Hence, the given function is the solution to the given differential equation.

A laboratory blood test is 99% effective in detecting a certain disease when it is in fact, present. However, the test also yields a false positive result for 0.5% of the healthy person tested (i. e if a healthy person is tested, then, with probability 0.005, the test will imply he has the disease). If 0.1 percent of the population actually has the disease, what is the probability that a person has the disease given that his test result is positive?
