For x 
M, let y(x) be a solution of the differential equation
(x 2 - 5) 
- 2xy = -2x(x 2 - 5) 2 such that y(2) = 7.
Then the maximum value of the function y(x) is
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
16
(16)
x=2, y=7
y = -(x 2 -5)(x 2 + 3)
put x 2 = t > 0
y = -(t-5)(t+3)
y max = 16 when x 2 =1
y max = 16
