To solve this differential equation use separation of variables. This means move all terms containing  to one side of the equation and all terms containing  to the other side.

First, multiply each side by .

Now divide by  on both sides.

Next, divide by  on both sides.

From here take the integral of both sides. Remember rules for logarithmic functions as they will be used in this problem.

So this is a separable differential equation. The first step is to move all of the x terms (including dx) to one side, and all of the y terms (including dy) to the other side. 

So the differential equation we are given is:  

Which rearranged looks like: 

At this point, in order to solve for y, we need to take the anti-derivative of both sides: 

Which equals: 

And since this an anti-derivative with no bounds, we need to include the general constant C

So, solving for y, we raise e to the power of both sides:

 which, simplified gives us our answer:

The simplest way to solve a separable differential equation is to rewrite  as  and, by an abuse of notation, to "multiply both sides by dt". This yields

 .

Next, we get all the y terms with dy and all the t terms with dt and integrate. Thus,

Combining the constants of integration and exponentiating, we have 

The plus minus and the  can be combined into another arbitrary constant, yielding .

Plugging in our initial condition, we have

First the differential equation can be separated to:

And then integrated simply to:

Using exponential rules, we note that  becomes . Meaning that the

differential equation is equivalent to:

which by separation of variables is:

The differential equation  cannot be written as  and is therefore not separable.

To solve this differential equation use separation of variables. This means move all terms containing  to one side of the equation and all terms containing  to the other side.

This is a separable differential equation. The simplest way to solve this is to first rewrite  as  and then by an abuse of notation to "multiply both sides by dt." This yields . Then group all the y terms with dy and integrate, getting us to . Solving for y, we have . Plugging in our condition, we find . Raising both sides to the power of -1/3, we see . Thus, our final solution is 

This is a separable ODE, so rearranging

Integrating

Plugging in the initial condition and solving gives us

Solving for  gives us

First, divide by  on both sides of the equation.

Identify the factor  term.

Integrate the factor.

Substitute this value back in and integrate the equation.

Now divide by  to get the general solution.

The transient term means a term that when the values get larger the term itself gets smaller. Therefore the transient term for this function is .
